- W8201080 abstract "A transmission X-ray microscope with 60 nm tomographic resolution has been used at beamline BL01B of NSRRC in Taiwan. This device has a superconducting wavelength shifter source, which provides a photon flux of 5×10 photons/s/0.1% bw in the energy range 5-20 keV. The TXM observations of smectites in aqueous suspension shows network of connected nano-size platelets which form a gel where highly flexible sheets are interacting with each other by a combination of edge attraction and basal plane repulsion. These build an expanded and extremely voluminous cellular network, composed of chain-like sheet assemblies. In such an extended cellular network, flexible smectite sheets may encapsulate water within cellular voids of dimensions up to 0.5 2 μm. This flocked cellular structure can span all volume of clay slurry. In such a case the suspension is gelled; there is no free settling in the system and further compacting may proceed slowly only by structural re-arrangement of the entire network. In a 3-D structure and in the absence of sheer, smectite sheets are not oriented in any particular direction and therefore, their most probable orientation in the volume of suspension is random. In 2-D, TXM micrographs reveal the Na-smectite gel structure in water. In this finding, elongated smectite sheets form a cellular network, 0.6 to 1.5 μm in diameter (average 940 nm). The smectite sample was size fractioned and sodium exchanged as described elsewhere. Solutions of aluminium and gallium 13 Keggin ions were prepared. To an aliquot of the Keggin ion solution, the sodium exchanged smectite was added in an amount which ensured the Keggin ion remained four times the CEC. The clay in Keggin ion solution was mixed overnight using a magnetic stirrer before collection, washing and drying via vacuum filtration. The Keggin ion exchanged smectite was subjected to x-ray diffraction to ensure complete exchange. A 10% w/v suspension of the Keggin exchanged smectite was prepared in filtered water. To this suspension an aliquot (3 μl/ml of suspension) of 1 mg/L gold nanoparticles (0.8-0.5 μm) was added. Observed structural effects of smectite modified nano-clay may be explained by hydration of the exchangeable counter ions, allowing these ions to then set up an electric field double layer. It is also possible that AFM measured long-distance forces, similar to electrostatic repulsion, have a steric origin and reflect the flexibility of smectite flakes. In dense suspension hindrance of neighbour platelets would be unavoidable. The scale of squeezing of the smectite gelled structure by the AFM cantilever spring is consistent with microscopy observations as well as force measurements." @default.
