This investigation aimed at evaluating the efficiency of micro and nanoclays as a low-cost material for the removal of crystal violet (CV) dye from an aqueous solution. The impacts of various factors (contact time, pH, adsorbent dosage, temperature, initial dye concentration) on the adsorption process have been taken into consideration. Six micro and nanoclay samples were obtained by treating clay materials collected from different locations in the Albaha region, Saudi Arabia. Out of the six tested micro and nanoclays materials, two (NCQ1 and NCQ3) were selected based on the highest adsorption efficiency for complete experimentation. The morphology and structure of the selected micro and nanoclay adsorbents were characterized by various techniques: SEM-EDX, FTIR, XRF, XRD, and ICP-MS. The XRF showed that the main oxides of both nanoclays were SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, K2O, CaO, and MgO, and the rest were impurities. All the parameters affecting the adsorption of CV dye were optimized in a batch system, and the optimized working conditions were an equilibrium time of 120 min, a dose of 30 mg, a temperature of 25 °C, and an initial CV concentration of 400 mg/L. The equilibrium data were tested using nonlinear isotherm and kinetic models, which showed that the Freundlich isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetics gave the best fit with the experimental data, indicating a physico-chemical interaction occurred between the CV dye and both selected micro and nanoclay surfaces. The maximum adsorption capacities of NCQ1 and NCQ3 adsorbents were 206.73 and 203.66 mg/g, respectively, at 25 °C. The thermodynamic factors revealed that the CV dye adsorption of both micro and nanoclays was spontaneous and showed an exothermic process. Therefore, the examined natural micro and nanoclays adsorbents are promising effective adsorbents for the elimination of CV dye from an aqueous environment.

“…The generation of large amounts of sediments from various local sources and their deposition in the deep‐marine environments is believed to be associated with the complex geology of Borneo in the Tertiary period (Ahmed, Siddiqui, Rahman, et al, 2021; Ahmed, Siddiqui, Ramasamy, et al, 2021; Hall et al, 2008; Ogawa & Back, 2022; Siddiqui et al, 2017; Usman, Zhang, Siddiqui, & Jamaluddin., 2020). Borneo is associated with tectonic subduction coupled with obduction of ophiolites and closure of palaeo‐basins (Hall, 2013; Mathew et al, 2014; Ramkumar et al, 2021; Siddiqui et al, 2019; Usman et al, 2021; Usman, Siddiqui, Mathew, et al, 2020).

“…The northern part of Borneo is comprised of the Sabah Basin (Figure 1a), which was filled by the Late Cretaceous to Tertiary sediments (Jamil, Siddiqui, Ahmed, et al, 2021; Siddiqui et al, 2020). Tectonically, the Sabah Basin lies at a complex geological junction between the Sunda Sea, Celebes Sea, Sulu Sea, and the South China Sea, the closure of which resulted in the Sabah orogenic belt (Figure 1) (Hall, 2013; Murtaza et al, 2018; Ramkumar et al, 2018; Suggate & Hall, 2014; Usman, Siddiqui, Mathew, et al, 2020).

Deep-water massive sandstones (DWMS) are characterized by large volumes of sand accumulations which are considered as potential reservoir intervals in deep-marine environments. Lithological variations and bed thickness statistics are used to interpret the distribution of massive sandstones in a deep-marine fan-lobe system. These massive sandstones are interpreted based on lithological heterogeneities and detailed facies analysis in seventeen exposed sections of the Late Palaeogene deposits in Sabah, NW Borneo. Sedimentary logs containing details of lithology textures and structures were used to recognize nine sedimentary facies of DWMS. These lithofacies were then grouped into three sedimentary facies associations: (1) massive facies association with basal part of turbiditic Bouma sequence, (2) massive facies association having softsediment deformation structures, and (3) massive facies association with erosional features. The facies analysis portrays inner to middle submarine fan deposition and was later applied to reconstruct the distribution of a channel-lobe complex. Individual sandstone bed thicknesses vary from 1 m to more than 8 m and the number of massive sandstones in submarine lobes range from less than 10% to more than 50%. The thicknesses of massive sandstones in channels are more than 8 m, whereas distal lobes have thicknesses from 1-2 m only. These sandstones are concentrated in channels, proximal and medial lobe settings that can also be verified from calculating the average of all maximum thickness of massive sand intervals that is, 8.91 m. The lithological heterogeneities and the processes associated with the deposition of these massive sandstones are vital for potential hydrocarbon reservoirs in the deep-marine environments around the globe.bed thickness statistics, channel-lobe complex, Crocker submarine fan, deep-water massive sandstones, facies analysis and facies association, NW Borneo, West Sabah Basin | INTRODUCTIONThe term 'deep-water massive sandstones' (DWMS) is used to describe the massive sandstones present in deep-marine environments (Johansson et al., 1998;Stevenson & Peakall, 2010;Stow & Johansson, 2000). The study of DWMS became the focus of emerging research over the last two decades and the concept is readily applicable to several deep-marine sandstone deposits across the globe including

“…Since the network structure of epoxy resin is inevitably penetrated by corrosive media, it is necessary to add various inert pigments to further improve the shielding performance of the coating, such as basalt, iron oxide, glass flakes, and so on [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ]. Mica is one of the most widely used inorganic fillers in this coating [ 13 , 14 , 15 ]. As a natural sheet silicate composed of silicon ox tetrahedra and aluminium–hydroxy octahedrons, mica not only has good physical stability and anti-ageing properties but also has a two-dimensional sheet layer structure that can form a parallel arrangement in the coating.…”

The Effect of the Modification of Mica by High-Temperature Mechanochemistry on the Anticorrosion Performance of Epoxy Coatings

et al. 2021

Epoxy resin was directly grafted onto the surface of mica powder by high-temperature mechanical ball milling. This method was used to achieve a chemical reaction between the epoxy resin and mica that cannot be carried out under conventional circumstances. The results show that an epoxy resin layer with a thickness of approximately 10 nm formed on the surface of the mica. This modified mica filler exhibited a significant change in its hydrophilic properties. The dispersion of mica and its compatibility with organic coatings also significantly improved. In addition, the modified mica filler was added to the epoxy coating. The improvement of the coating’s compactness and toughness is the reason for its anti-corrosion performance enhancement.
