Abstract
Pillared Clays (PILCs) are an interesting class of 2-dimensional microporous materials. Due to their high surface area and permanent porosity they are very attractive solids for adsorption and catalysis purposes. Since their porosity can be localized in the larger micropore region, these substrates form a bridge between the microporous zeolites on one hand and the inorganic meso- and macroporous solids (e.g. silica, alumina) on the other. The history of PILCs started in 1955, but the first extensive studies appeared only around 1980. During this pioneering work, mainly organic cations and organometal pillars were used. Now, the inorganic polyoxycations are of greatest interest because of their high thermal stability. By changing the nature and, hence, the size of the pillars, different pore-sizes are obtained. In this way, it becomes possible to tune the porosity. This porosity combined with the properties of both pillar and host are very important for certain applications, such as selective gas adsorptions, catalytic reactions, etc.
