Zn/Al-layered double hydroxides (LDHs) containing the organic anion of 2,4-dihydroxybenzophenone-5-sulfonate (DHBS) have been synthesized by co-precipitation method. Surface, structural, thermal and absorption properties of the ZnAl-DHBS-LDHs nanohybrids were characterized by BET analysis, scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis and UV–visible spectroscopy. The results revealed that organic UV absorbent-DHBS has been intercalated into the interlayer spaces of ZnAl-LDHs and the intercalation of DHBS in LDHs interlayer galleries resulted to higher thermal stability and better UV absorption ability; these show that the hybrid ZnAl-DHBS-LDHs phase has potential applications as a UV absorber.
