Intercalation of Methylene Blue in a High-Charge Calcium Montmorillonite — An Indication of Surface Charge Determination by Zhaohui Li, Chih-Jen Wang, Wei-Teh Jiang

“…A complete balance between the amount of MB cation adsorbed and that of exchangeable cations desorbed at a 1:1 charge ratio for MB uptake by SAz-1 indicated that cation-exchange was the most important mechanism in this case together with supplementary hydrogen bonding. The adsorbed MB molecules associated into dimers and were orientated in the interlayer in a nearly vertical configuration, with the sulphur atom keyed onto the surface. …”
