Layered Double Hydroxides (LDHs) are remarkable two-dimensional materials with a diverse range of physiochemical properties, making them highly valuable in various applications. These applications encompass catalysis, biomaterials, energy, filler of polymeric composites, and water remediation. In this comprehensive book, we delve into the fundamental aspects of LDH, exploring their implementations in methodologies based on density functional theory (DFT). We also discuss the synthetic methods employed to prepare LDHs and LDH-based core-shell structures, as well as the intriguing behaviors of LDH compounds, such as swelling and exfoliation.

A significant portion of the book is dedicated to consolidating and emerging applications of LDHs. We explore their role as catalysts in photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, and water oxidation processes, highlighting their significance in sustainable energy conversion and environmental remediation. LDHs also find applications as biomaterials, offering unique properties for tissue engineering and drug delivery. Furthermore, they serve as functional fillers in food packaging, enhancing food safety and shelf life.

New advancements in LDH research are presented with a keen eye on the past discoveries. This book serves as a valuable resource for researchers, students, and professionals in the fields of materials science, catalysis, and environmental science, providing a comprehensive understanding of LDHs and their potential applications.
