TABLE 1.

Specific surface area and interlayer d-spacings of the various compositions with or without solvating with ethanol followed by drying at room temperature for 30 min

Composition	Specific surface area from BET adsorption profiles (m² g⁻¹)	d₀₀₁ (Å) (SD) (dried at 60°C for 15 min)	d₀₀₁ (Å) (SD) (after solvating with ethanol and drying at room temperature for 30 min)
L ₀	289	12.574 (0.033)^a	13.760 (0.104)^b
LTA_2.5	36	14.956 (0.075)^d	14.580 (0.100)^c
LTA₄	44	15.045 (0.092)^d	14.347 (0.064)^c
LTA₅	38	15.503 (0.096)^e	13.980 (0.072)^b

Note: Identical letters denote no statistically significant difference [p > .05] after adjustment for pairwise multiple comparisons of all eight groups.
