Abstract: | The adsorption of stearic acid on both sodium montmorillonites and calcium montmorillonites has been studied by near infrared spectroscopy complimented with infrared spectroscopy. Upon adsorption of stearic acid on Ca–Mt additional near infrared bands are observed at 8236 cm?1 and is assigned to an interaction of stearic acid with the water of hydration. Upon adsorption of the stearic acid on Na–Mt, the NIR bands are now observed at 5671, 5778, 5848 and 5912 cm?1 and are assigned to the overtone and combination bands of the CH fundamentals. Additional bands at 4177, 4250, 4324, 4337, 4689 and 4809 cm?1 are attributed to CH combination bands resulting from the adsorption of the stearic acid. Stearic acid is used as a model molecule for adsorption studies. The application of near infrared spectroscopy to the study of this adsorption proved most useful. |
