Silica-resin-bentonite nanocomposite and its application in catalysis

Bentonites are natural clays found in abundance in deposits all over the planet and possess certain properties that make them interesting for various industrial applications. Through their activation or acid treatment, they can be used as catalysts in several reactions of interest. However, these ma...
