Abstract
The recent advances in inorganic ion-exchangers in Chinese universities are briefly reviewed in the following groups: (1) clay minerals, (2) zeolites, (3) hexacyanoferrates, (4) salts of heterpoly acids, (5) oxides and hydrous oxides. The preparations, the ion exchange properties and the applications of these inorganic ion exchangers are presented and discussed. Some representative research articles in this field are introduced in detail.
