Clays complexants

Similar molecular weight poly(DMA-co-EPl), 1750 daltons, ca. 13 repeat units, and poly(TMDAB-co-DCB), 1500 daltons, ca. 11 repeat units were compared. The two condensation polymers appeared to be about equally effective in preventing the swelling of Wyoming bento-nite. Any small differences are probably due to repeat unit chemical structure differences rather than the small variations in polymer molecular weight. The presence of the hydroxyl group and the smaller N - N distance in poly(DMA-co-EPl) could affect polymer conforma-tion in solution, geometry of the polymer - clay complex, and surface properties of the polymer - clay complex as compared to poly(TMDAB-co-DCB).

Clay minerals or phyllosilicates are lamellar natural and synthetic materials with high surface area, cation exchange and swelling properties, exfoliation ability, variable surface charge density and hydrophobic/hydrophilic character [85], They are good host structures for intercalation or adsorption of organic molecules and macromolecules, particularly proteins. On the basis of the natural adsorption of proteins by clay minerals and various clay complexes that occurs in soils, many authors have investigated the use of clay and clay-derived materials as matrices for the immobilization of enzymes, either for environmental chemistry purpose or in the chemical and material industries.

In the past the mineral matrix was considered as inert, only providing stabilization support for enzymes and humic substances however, due to the overwhelming amount of evidence at the molecular level, there is no doubt that minerals participate in abiotic catalysis of humification reactions in soils. Naidja et al. (2000) referred to mineral particles as the Hidden Half of enzyme-clay complexes, which not only prolong the activity of immobilized enzymes but also are readily able to participate in electron transfer reactions. Many environmental factors can negatively affect the... [Pg.92]

Figure 5.3. A humic acid macromolecule interacting with a surface of a clay mineral. The proposed macromolecular structure of the soil humic acid (HA) is based on the following common average characteristics of humic acids MW 6386 Da elemental analysis (%) C, 53.9 N, 5.0 H, 5.8 0,35.1 S, 0.5 C/N, 10.7 NMR information (%) aliphatic C, 18.1 aromatic C, 20.9 carbohydrate C, 23.7 metoxy C, 4.9 carboxylic C, 8.4 ketone C, 4.5 phenolic C, 4.2 functional groups (cmol/g) carboxyl, 376 phenol, 188 total acidity, 564.
