Abstract:
The invention has for its objects to provide an organic/inorganic hybrid that has high flame retardancy, flexibility, moldability and affinities for organic compounds, and is capable of including therein an organic compound having a large number of carbon atoms. The organic/inorganic hybrid comprises a layered hydroxide mineral 40 with sheet-like inorganic compound unit layers 11a, 11b, 11c and 11d and an organic compound 13 included between the inorganic compound unit layers 11a, 11b, 11c and 11d. The above objects are achievable by using as the hydroxide mineral 40 at least one hydroxide mineral selected from the group consisting of Mg(OH) 2 , Ca(OH) 2 , Al(OH) 3 , AlO(OH), Fe(OH) 3 and FeO(OH), and as the organic compound 13 a saccharide having 4 to 40 carbon atoms.
Abstract:
An organic-inorganic composite is useful as a sheeted filler having a high aspect ratio. A positively charged organic compound is intercalated into a non-swelling layered silicate that is composed of mica and has K ions between the layers, and has primary particles of 2 μm to 500 μm as an average particle size. The layered silicate is represented as the formula: (KaM0.1-b)(XcYd)(Si4-eAle)O10(OHfF2-f), wherein 0.6≦̸a≦̸1.0, 0≦̸b≦̸0.1, 1.0≦̸c≦̸3, 0≦̸d≦̸2, 2≦̸c+d≦̸3, 0≦̸e≦̸4, 0≦̸f≦̸2; M is a cation other than K which is between layers and at least one of Li, Na, Rb, Cs, NH4, Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn and Al; X and Y are metals enclosed in an octahedral formed in a 2:1 typed sheet; X is at least one of Mg, Fe, Mn, Ni, Zn and Li; and Y is at least one of Al, Fe, Mn and Cr.
