摘要
Tubular halloysite is a hydrated polymorph of kaolinite, commonly considered as its associated mineral. Due to its unique mesoscopic (2–50 nm) tubular structure, it has attracted great interest in the field of adsorption, catalysis, and nanocarrier. The halloysites in different deposits present various morphological properties which significantly affect the interface reactions with functional guests. These scattered properties in addition to their low purity severely limit the actual applications of halloysite in industry.
