Comparison of Surface Properties of Sepiolite and Palygorskite: Surface Energy and Nanoroughness

The surface properties of two sepiolite samples and one palygorskite sample were compared using inverse gas chromatography (IGC). Samples were previously conditioned at appropriate temperatures for the removal of all zeolitic water. Dispersive (or Lifshitz–van der Waals) component of the surface ene...
