Resumo

Layered Double Hydroxides (LDH) and related nanocomposites have attracted much attention for biomedical applications and the development of LDH drug carriers composed by endogenous metals such as iron is of obvious interest. However, most of the studies reported so far on iron-containing LDH, mainly focusing on the applications, suffer from insufficient data about the synthesis and the characterization of these materials. In this study, it is addressed compositional and structural properties of two series of LDH materials, Mg2FeyAl(1-y)-Cl and Zn2FeyAl(1-y)-Cl with a M2+/M3+ molar ratio (R) equal to 2 and 0 <= y <= 1. By combining crystal-chemical reasoning, Rietveld refinements and pair distribution function analysis (PDF), it was possible to differentiate between contributions from crystalline and amorphous components. Concerning Mg-series, for y > 0.5, the compositions were found to slightly deviate from those expected with an increase in the value of R tending to 3. For Zn-series, more heterogeneous samples were obtained with the presence of amorphous 2-line ferrihydrite clearly demonstrated by PDF analysis. As well as providing a reliable approach to the characterization of Fe-LDH, this study gives useful elements for better understanding and interpreting the results reported in the literature regarding these phases.
