Popis: High-quality stoichiometric Co2Al−NO3 and Co2Al−CO3 layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been obtained by precipitation followed by anion exchange, both high-power-sonication assisted. Application of high-power ultrasound has been demonstrated to result in a considerable acceleration of the crystallization process and the anion-exchange reaction. Two independent approaches were used to form bulk and 2-D samples of Co2Al−NO3 with the oriented crystallites, namely uniaxial pressing of deposits from sonicated LDH slurries and magnetic field-assisted arrangement of LDH crystallites precipitating on glass substrates. A convenient way of preparation of semi-transparent compacts with relatively big blocks of oriented crystallites have been demonstrated. Thin dense transparent films of highly-ordered crystallites of Co2Al−NO3 LDH have been produced and characterized.
