Method for flocculating suspensions containing swelled layered chalcogenide

In a method of flocculating a suspension containing a) a layered oxide material intercalated with a hydrophobic swelling agent and b) nonintercalated hydrophobic swelling agent, the suspension is contacted with a ketone, water, and a cationic organic polymer. The resulting mixture is maintained at a...

Zusammenfassung:In a method of flocculating a suspension containing a) a layered oxide material intercalated with a hydrophobic swelling agent and b) nonintercalated hydrophobic swelling agent, the suspension is contacted with a ketone, water, and a cationic organic polymer. The resulting mixture is maintained at a sufficiently alkaline pH to prevent removal of the intercalated swelling agent during the flocculation treatment.
