The fourth generation cephalosporin antibacterial agent, cefepime, was loaded into layered double hydroxides for enhancing antibiotic efficiency, reducing side effects, as well as achieving the sustained release property. The intercalation of antibiotic into the inter-gallery of ZnAl-layered double hydroxide (LDH) was carried out using ion exchange method, by this constituting a nano-sized organic-inorganic hybrid material for a controlled release novel formulation. Although cefepime is a broad spectrum antibiotic, it has various adverse effects and a significant degradation rate. Thus, the preparation and physico-chemical characterization of nanomaterials able to intercalate this drug is an important study for medical and pharmaceutical field. The antibiotic inclusion into LDHs nanostructure was confirmed by advanced characterization techniques and the release profile of cefepime was analysed with the respect to pH of the simulated media.

To improve the compatibility of montmorillonite (MMT) with polymer. A kind of organic intercalation agent was applied in the intercalating organic modification of montmorillonite (OMMT) through ion exchange method, and a kind of silane coupling agent was further used to do the organic treatment. The SEBS/OMMTs composites were also prepared by melt blending. Structure and characterization of the modified MMTs were investigated by Fourier Transform infrared (FT-IR), wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXRD), and the thermal stability were characterized by Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The dispersion status of MMTs were evaluated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the composites were tested by universal material testing machine. The FTIR results initial displayed that OMMTs had the absorption peak of organic functional groups. The XRD results showed that compared to Na+-MMT(1.47 nm), the layer spacing of H-OMMT increased to 3.27 nm, the above two results showed the organic modification of MMT had succeed. The results of TGA showed that OMMTs had a weight loss of organics. The SEM demonstrated that H-OMMT had the best dispersion status in SEBS matrix, and Na+-MMT was the worst.

Ag+/ZSM-5 catalysts were prepared by an ion-exchange method. UV-irradiation of theAg+/ZSM-5 catalysts in the presence ofN2Oled to the photocatalytic decomposition ofN2OintoN2andO2at 298 K. Investigations of the effective wavelength of the irradiated UV-light for the reaction as well as the in-situ characterization of the catalysts by means of UV-Vis, photoluminescence and FT-IR spectroscopies revealed that the photoexcitation of theAg+−N2Ocomplexes formed between gaseousN2Oand the isolatedAg+ions exchanged within the zeolite cavities plays a significant role in the reaction.

Ag pillared interlayered clays ( Ag -PILCs) were synthesized through a novel method, in which Ag nanoparticles were formed in montmorillonite interlayers. In this method, silver ions were first exchanged into montmorillonite interlayers, and then reduced into Ag nanoparticles by trisodium citrate at 100°C in aqueous solutions. The synthesized Ag @montmorillonite nanocomposite was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and its surface area was evaluated by using Brunauer–Emmet–Teller (BET) method. Compared to traditional PILCs synthesized through ion exchange method, the formed Ag -PILCs had better thermal stability and stronger structure because their pillars are nanoparticles. Furthermore, this method introduces a possibility to control the size of the pillars and thus the pore size of the PILCs, due to that the nanoparticle pillars can be modified on their forms and diameters in the synthesizing process. Also, it was found that the intercalating Ag nanoparticle pillars were formed at restricted pH values and silver ion concentrations.
