title: Hierarchical films of layered double hydroxides by using a sol-gel process and their high adaptability in water treatment.
abstract: Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) films with hierarchical morphologies have been fabricated on different templates via the sol-gel nanocopying and in situ growth process, which exhibit desirable mechanical properties and high adaptability in water treatment.
