Research Summary
Montmorillonite nanoclays are a type of nanomaterial composed of layered aluminosilicate minerals belonging to the smectite group. These nanoclays are characterized by their ultrafine particle size and high aspect ratio, with typical dimensions in the nanometer range. Montmorillonite nanoclays have a layered structure consisting of a central octahedral sheet sandwiched between two tetrahedral sheets, creating a lattice-like structure with interlayer spaces. These interlayer spaces can absorb and trap molecules, ions, or gases, giving montmorillonite nanoclays unique properties such as high surface area, cation exchange capacity, and swelling ability. They are used in a variety of applications, including as reinforcement fillers in polymer nanocomposites to improve mechanical properties, as adsorbents for environmental remediation and wastewater treatment, and as rheological modifiers in paints, coatings, and drilling fluids. Montmorillonite nanoclays offer promising opportunities for enhancing material performance and sustainability in various industries due to their unique properties at the nanoscale.
According to WENKH research statistics, the global Montmorillonite Nanoclays market size will reach 2,706.23 Million USD in 2025 and is projected to reach 3,828.29 Million USD by 2032, with a CAGR of 5.08% (2025-2032).
