A Combined Neutron and Synchrotron X-ray Scattering Study of a MgAl-Layered Double Oxide.

ABSTRACT: Owing to their vast chemical and structural flexibility, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are among some of the most promising materials for many catalytic applications. Thermal decomposition below 700 °C leads to the formation of a complex semiamorphous mixed metal oxide (LDO). In this study, the product of calcination of aqueous miscible organic solvent-treated AMO-[Mg_0.70Al_0.30(OH)₂](CO₃)_0.15·yH₂O·zEtOH at 600 °C (AMO-Mg_2.33Al LDO) has been investigated using a synergistic combination of high-resolution synchrotron X-ray and neutron scattering techniques, as well as high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM), solid-state NMR (ssNMR), and thermogravimetric
