Abstract
Suslick and Green have reported the profound effects of ultrasound on the intercalation of various guest molecules into layered inorganic solids [170]. The products of these reactions are of interest in attempts to design new materials with novel optical, electrical and catalytic properties. However, synthesis of such compounds generally requires the use of extremely high temperatures over very long periods of time. In contrast, sonicating the reaction mixture brings the reaction to completion within hours, rather than the days required for the thermal reaction.
