Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been known for a considerable time and have
been widely studied. The basic features of their structure, involving positively charged …

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) comprise an extensive class of materials that are very
easy to synthesize in the laboratory, albeit not always as pure phases. In this chapter, we …

Coumarins, as a family of molecules, exhibit a wide range of fluorescence emission
properties. In many cases, this fluorescence is extremely sensitive to the local environment …

This paper reviews a systematic work, mainly performed in our laboratories, on the
intercalation into hydrotalcite-like compounds (HTlc) of anti-inflammatory drugs, sunscreen …

Driven by the scientific challenges involved in the creation of nanostructures providing
access to new materials with unusual properties, the study of hybrid materials based on …

During the last decade, two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have attracted tremendous
interest in many different fields, including electrochemistry, energy storage/conversion …

Hydrotalcite-like compounds are two-dimensional inorganic nanolayers also known as clay
minerals or anionic clays or layered double hydroxides/layered hydroxy salts, and have …

Thermoplastic polymers like polyolefins, polyesters, polyamide, and styrene polymers are
the most representative commodity plastics thanks to their cost-efficient manufacturing …

Multicolor luminescent films have great potential for use in optoelectronics, solid‐state light‐
emitting materials, and optical devices. This work describes a systematic investigation of the …

This paper reports the fabrication of layered double hydroxide nanosheets (LDH
