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