We report the synthesis of superhydrophobic clay minerals by grafting a monofunctional alkoxysilane -trimethylethoxysilane on different organomodified montmorillonites. The structure of the montmorillonites was changed as evidenced by TGA, FTIR, DLS and X-Ray fluorescence analyses that confirmed the successful functionalisation..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
