Effect of Mg(II) and Na(I) Doping on the Electronic Structure and Mechanical Properties of Kaolinite

Abstract: Because kaolinite has multiple defects, it is very important to study the effect of different doped cations on the electronic structure and mechanical properties of kaolinite (Al4Si4O18H8) from the microscopic point of view with the first-principle calculation method. The results exhibited that the doping of Mg(II) and Na(I) makes the ion bond and layer spacing of kaolinite crystal change, and the bond length of the chemical bond between the doped and O atom is positively related to the atomic radius of the do… Show more

“…This structure was used as the clay mineral host lattice, in which an Fe atom is introduced as a bulk impurity, replacing one Al atom in the 34-atom unit cell. The resulting doping amount is similar to that considered in recent studies for other heavy doped-kaolinites (Fu and Yang, 2017;Zhao et al, 2020).…”

“…Conversely, the amoxicillin degradation was lower in kaolinite (band gap = 4.99 eV) [ 43 ] presence under irradiated conditions than the Light Control. The observed rate constant was 0.00105 h −1 (R 2 = 0.997) with a half-life of 660 h. The photocatalytic effect of the kaolinite for amoxicillin degradation is insignificant due to limited light penetration in the presence of clay particles.…”
