Kaolinite is a useful metal aluminum silicate for proteomics research. Kaolinite, a widely abundant clay mineral found all over the world, is a hydrated aluminum silicate and stands as the most prevalent clay mineral on Earth. In addition, it finds extensive use in scientific research applications due to its distinct characteristics. Understanding the mechanism of action behind kaolinite′s remarkable properties is essential. Its crystal structure is characterized by a central aluminum atom surrounded by four oxygen atoms, creating a tetrahedral arrangement. This specific structure facilitates robust hydrogen bonding between the oxygen and aluminum atoms, endowing the material with its exceptional attributes. Among these features are its remarkable adsorption capabilities, high degree of ion exchange, and significant cation exchange. Consequently, kaolinite emerges as an ideal material for diverse scientific research pursuits. The diverse and abundant applications of kaolinite in various industries and scientific research underscore its importance as a versatile and valuable clay mineral. Its synthesis method, mechanism of action, and unique properties open up numerous opportunities for further exploration and future research directions.
