Cs Adsorption and CsCl Particle Formation Facilitated by Amino Talc-like Clay in Aqueous Solutions at Room Temperature.

ABSTRACT: Amino talc-like clay with an increased number of active sites and dispersion in a colloidal system has been synthesized and used for contaminant adsorption and support for nanoparticle formation. Amino talc-like clays having different number of layers and aminoalkyl ligands were synthesized and their Cs uptake behavior was examined. Cs uptake through Cs adsorption and CsCl particle formation facilitated by amino talc-like clay in a colloidal aqueous solution at room temperature are reported. The amino talc-like clay demonstrated better Cs uptake with a high initial Cs concentration than talc and montmorillonite. This might have been caused by a high concentration of trapped Cs and Cl ions in exfoliated amino clay, which eventually became CsCl particles. The formation of the CsCl particles
