Investigation of the adsorption of hyaluronic and glycolic acid on the clay

Our main aim in this study; adsorbent hyalunoric and glycolic acid on the retainer clay. In our study; The clay, which was brought from the holding village of Güzelsu, Gürpınar district of Van province, was used. The clay we obtained in the form of large particles was first passed through a sieve of 0.038 mm (400 mesh). The ground clay was heated at 100 °C oven for 24 hours and kept in desiccator. Weighing 10 g of clay sample, ie 0.2 g clay, adsorbed with 1,2,3,4,5 ml concentrated hyalunoric and glycolic acid at room temperature for each 0.2 g clay for 10 minutes. The same operations were performed for heat treated clay. When the adsorption was equilibrated, the samples were filtered through the filter paper and then washed with ionized water. DTA, TGA and SEM analyzes of these samples were made by drying the solid fraction and the results were interpreted in the central laboratory. In this study, pure clay and acid treated clay were studied. As a result of the processes and thermal changes, it was observed that the amount of adsorption of hyalunoric acid was higher in the untreated clay and it was concluded that these clay minerals could be used as skin masks when suitable conditions were provided. At the same time, it was concluded that the pore structure of the clay was disrupted and the irregular shape proceeded by heat treatment of pure clay.
