| Summary: | There are several purposes for investigating hydrotalcite clays and one of them is due to its importance as an anionic adsorbent and ion exchanger, which make them capable of removing various pollutants from water. The most common hydrotalcite structure is based on double lamellar hydroxide of magnesium and aluminum, containing carbonate anions in the interlayer space. However, it is common to investigate the co-substitution of aluminum with other trivalent cations, especially transition metal cations, due to their binding properties. In this work, it was investigate the co-substitution of chromium (III) and aluminum in a sample of magnesium-aluminum carbonated hydrotalcite, comparing it with the same composition without this co-substitution. Thermal stability, crystallinity and morphology were investigated, showing that chromium contributes to the adsorptive capacity at low temperature.
