Influence of polysaccharides with different chemical character on stability of montmorillonite suspensions in the presence of pseudoamphoteric cocamidopropyl betaine

Betaine as a Functional Ingredient: Metabolism, Health-Promoting Attributes, Food Sources, Applications and Analysis Methods

“…In addition to its potential health benefits for both humans and animals, betaine is also used in some industrial applications as a stabilizer, emulsifier, and surfactant [ 24 , 25 , 26 ]. This review will give up-to-date information on the chemical structure, physiology, and metabolism of betaine, its health-promoting and disease-preventing properties, and its functional applications.…”

Comparative study on ionic dissolution and structural changes of montmorillonite, kaolinite, and muscovite during interfacial reactions with oxalic acid solution

“…The peaks at 917 cm -1 (Al-Al-OH) and 843 cm -1 (Al-Mg-OH) confirmed the substitution of octahedral layers (Zhao et al, 2015). The peak at 1031 cm -1 was attributed to a Si-O stretching vibration, and the peaks at 523 and 467 cm -1 were ascribed to the tetrahedral Si-O-Al and Si-O-Si bending vibrations, respectively (Farmer et 1979; Hassanien et al, 2010;Godek et al, 2022). The intensities of the above vibrational peaks gradually decreased after the interfacial reaction with oxalic acid, and the strengths of the Si-O-Al peaks decreased to a greater extent compared with that of Si-O-Si bonding.…”
