Synthesis and characterization of silica nanoparticles from clay
We report a method to synthesize silica nanoparticles from bentonite clay. A series of thermal and acid treatment processes was performed on bentonite clay to lower the alumina and increase the silica content. The obtained silica rich clay was treated in two different concentrations (10 wt% and 40 w...
