Abstract
⺠Sepiolite fibers are anisotropic with a surface free energy of 20.09 mJ/m2. ⺠Rough fiber surfaces imaged by AFM undergo substitution of Mg2+ at natural pH. ⺠MD simulation confirms a hydrophobicity level in the transition region. ⺠Sepiolite basal plane exhibits 3 Ã
space with water molecules.
