Abstract: In this paper, the conventional physical separation method such as flotation, gravity separation, magnetic separation, alkaline leaching and sulfuric acid leaching were studied. The effects of grinding fineness, amount of agent, magnetic intensity, roasting temperature, roasting time, the leaching agent and leaching time on the leaching of zinc were investigated, respectively. The results show that the leaching rate of zinc is below 50% in the conventional alkaline leaching, and the leaching rate of zinc is below 85% and the leaching rate of iron is above 35% in sulfuric acid leaching. Compared with XRD pattern of the raw ore, the different diffraction peaks of smithsonite is off in alkaline leaching products. In sulfuric acid leaching, the different diffraction peaks of smithsonite are off in the leaching products when sulfuric acid concentration is less than 60 g/L. After 60 g/L, the different diffraction peaks of smithsonite and siderite are off in the leaching products.

Abstract: In order to research the colloidal and thixotropic performance of the inorganic gel prepared by high purity montmorillonite, this study uses the moderate grade bentonite ores from Weifang (China) as raw material. Two-stage hydrocyclone classification was applied to obtain the high purity montmorillonite with its content of 94.8 per cent. In contrast to other methods of montmorillonite purification, two-stage purification by hydroclone has the advantages of larger throughput and easily achieving auto-control in industry, and products with different montmorillonite content can be obtained by this method. And then the inorganic gel was prepared by the prepared high purity montmorillonite , its colloidal and thixotropic performances were further studies. Research results show that the inorganic gel belongs to plastic body liquidity, the viscosity decreases with the increase of the shear rate, the static and dynamic shearing stress values are 33.98 Pa and 91.89 Pa respectively, and the thixotropic value is 95.2 dyne·s/cm², which indicates that it has preferable colloidal and thixotropic performance. Montmorillonite inorganic gel prepared by bentonite with high montmorillonite content and low- layer charge has better gel performance. The application result of inorganic gel in dentifrice and medicine shows that it has excellent effect.

Abstract: Al-pillared montmorillonite (Al-PILM) prepared with Keggin ions was studied by means of XRD, SEM-EDS and N₂ adsorption-desorption isotherms.The rusults show that, compared to unpillared Na-montmorillonite (Na-M), the interlayer spacing d₍₀₀₁₎ value, BET specific surface area, surface fractal dimension and the proportion of microporous specific surface area of Al-PILM are larger and the surface is relatively rough. The BJH porous volume distribution of Al-PILM is the most probable distribution, and the most probable pore size is about 2 nm, belonging to mesopore. The porous structure of Al-PILM is characterized as parallel plate slit or “house-of-cards” wedge-shaped pore which is formed by novel meso-microporous delaminated structure and fragments. Besides, the results of elemental distribution show that the ions exchange action between Na⁺ and hydroxy-Al cations in pillaring solution occurs in the formation of Al-PILM.
