Özet

Two organobentonites (ODTMA-B, HDTMA-B) were synthesized using hexadecyltrimethyle ammonium bromide (HDTMAB) and octadecyltrimethyle ammonium bromide (ODTMAB). Synthesized organobentonites were characterized by X-ray diffraction particle size, and surface area analysis. Particle size analyses of the original bentonite and organobentonites showed that the organobentonites contained a greater number of coarse particles than present in the original bentonite. While the basal spacings of the organobentonites increased organic cation, the surface area decreased.
