Clay separation Suspended clay solution during adsorption Used Adams compact centrifuge (3000 rpm) for 5 min good for most clays, except HdPh3P-MT (floated) & NaMT (clay still suspended) Filtered all but NaMT through 0.45 μm syringe filter NaMT still looked unexpectedly dark Centrifuged NaMT at 13,000 rpm for 10 min using 8 1.5 mL vials Then, filtered through 0.2 μm syringe filter 8 ppm MG Adsorption Repeated experiment for all clays and NaMT/PVOH using 8ppm MG stock solution see 8/1 for procedure
