Fabrication of intercalated p-aminobenzoic acid into Zn-Ti layered double hydroxide and its application as UV absorbent

The ZnTi-PABA-LDH composite exhibits excellent UV absorption ability stronger and broader than both pristine PABA and ZnTi-LDH between 200 nm and 400 nm, which is attributed to the interactions between the guest and host layers. The studies suggest that ZnTi-PABA-LDH composites have potential applications as safe sunscreen materials.
