Fig. 13. Schematic illustration for formation and structure of CoAl–CO32− SL-LDH and CoAl–CO32− LDH: (a) ethylene glycol (EG) solution of reactants; (b) adsorption of EG molecules on the surface of a SL-LDH nanosheet in reaction; (c) completely dispersed SL-LDH in water; (d) disorderly stack of SL-LDH in the dried state; and (e) LDH assembly structure from generated SL-LDH.
