Dynamic water vapor sorption on Mg(Ga3+)O mixed oxides: Analysis of the LDH thermal regeneration process

The rehydration process of the calcined MgGa-layered double hydroxides (Ga-LDH) was analyzed at different temperatures and relative humidities. Results clearly showed that Ga-LDH sample presented an excellent regeneration kinetic, in comparison to the aluminum typical one. Different techniques such as X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and thermal analysis were used to elucidate the presented results.
