title: Characterisation of pillared clays by contrast-matching small-angle neutron scattering.
abstract: The contrast-matching SANS technique has been utilised to determine inter-pillar distances (and surface texture) in montmorillonite and beidellite pillared smectite clays; they lie in the range 1.40-1.80 nm, reflecting different inter-pillar orderings.
