Clay mineral nanotubes, or the kaolinite strudel wants to twist

How to produce nanoclusters (1D) and nanoparticles (0D) from a sheet-like kaolinite clay aggregate? What methods can be used to separate kaolinite sheets and why do they coil up? The presentation will cover the potential applications of kaolinite nanorods and the methods to study them. The lecture is primarily aimed at secondary school students.
