A zero-valent iron/rectorite nanocomposite (NZVI/rectorite) was developed as a heterogeneous H₂O₂ catalyst for P-chlorophenol degradation. The physicochemical properties of NZVI/rectorite were characterized by various techniques including X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis. Results showed that NZVI sphere nanoparticles were successfully loaded on the rectorite surface with less aggregation and good dispersion. Moreover, compared with acid-leached rectorite (30.91 m²/g), the NZVI/rectorite appeared to have larger surface area (50.75 m²/g). In addition, the effects of pH, reaction time, initial P-chlorophenol concentration, catalyst amount, and H₂O₂ dosage on the P-chlorophenol degradation were systematically investigated. Results showed that NZVI/rectorite presents better properties for the degradation and mineralization of P-chlorophenol compared with pristine NZVI due to the large surface area, low aggregation, and good dispersion of the former. The degradation mechanisms of P-chlorophenol by NZVI/rectorite were adsorption and reduction coupled with a Fenton-like reaction. Four successive runs of the stability and regeneration study also showed that the NZVI/rectorite were unchanged even after 100% of P-chlorophenol degradation ratio. This study has extended the application of NZVI/rectorite as environment function material for the removal of P-chlorophenol from the environment.

零价铁/锂蒙脱石纳米复合材料（NZVI /锂蒙脱石）被开发为用于对氯苯酚降解的非均相H ₂ O ₂催化剂。NZVI /锂蒙脱石的理化特性通过多种技术进行了表征，包括X射线衍射，扫描电子显微镜，透射电子显微镜，能量色散光谱，傅立叶变换红外光谱，X射线光电子光谱以及Brunauer-Emmett-Teller分析。结果表明，NZVI球形纳米颗粒成功地负载在累托石表面上，具有较少的聚集和良好的分散性。此外，与酸浸累托石（30.91 m ² / g）相比，NZVI /锂蒙脱石的表面积更大（50.75 m ^2）。/G）。此外，pH值，反应时间，对氯苯酚的初始浓度，催化剂量和H ₂ O _2的影响剂量对对氯苯酚的降解进行了系统的研究。结果表明，与原始NZVI相比，NZVI /锂蒙脱石具有更好的对氯苯酚降解和矿化性能，这是由于前者的表面积大，聚集度低和分散性好。NZVI /锂蒙脱石对对氯苯酚的降解机理是吸附和还原以及类芬顿反应。四个连续的稳定性和再生研究结果还表明，即使在100％的对氯苯酚降解率之后，NZVI /锂蒙脱石也没有变化。这项研究扩展了NZVI /锂蒙脱石作为环境功能材料从环境中去除对氯苯酚的应用。
