Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView: Specialists from several countries and disciplines explore the use of clay-based layered materials for different functional applications ranging from catalysis and biomaterials to self-healing coatings. Among the topics are hydrotalcites as catalysts and catalyst precursors for synthesizing biodiesel, the adsorption of acid dyes on hydrotalcite-like anionic clays, recent developments in clay-based functional coating for corrosion protection, drug delivery using nano-sized layered double hydroxide, and progress in the one-pot synthesis of methyl isobutyl ketone using catalysts based on multifunctional layered clay.
