Insights into the synthesis of layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles: Part 1. Optimization and controlled synthesis of chloride-intercalated LDH

With the aid of design of experiments, a mean particle size (MPS) model, expressed in the significant factors, was developed and experimentally verified to synthesize nearly monodispersed Cl−-intercalated (Zn, Al)-LDH nanoparticles with MPS ∼200-500 nm.277
