“…A pillar technology is a useful method to prepare the materials with large surface area and good thermal stability [29], which cannot only synthesise porous materials with novel properties, but also improve the functional activity of pillared agents [30]. Therefore, in this work, we choose Ni 2+ -Fe 3+ LDHs material with high crystallinity and well-defined hexagonal shape as host layer, MnO 2 as guest species, and MnO 2 -pillared Ni 2+ -Fe 3+ layered double hydroxide nanocomposite was successfully fabricated through a intercalation/reduction reaction followed by heating treatment.…”
