This report provides detailed experimental results of thermal and surface characterization on untreated and surface-treated halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) obtained from two geographic areas. Surface characterization techniques, including XPS and time-of-flight secondary ionmass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) were used. ToF-SIMS surface analysis experiments were performed with both atomic and cluster ion beams. Higher ion yields and more high-mass ions were obtained with the cluster ion beams. Static ToF-SIMS spectra were analyzed with principal component analysis (PCA). Morphological diversities were observed in the samples although they mainly contained tubular structures. Thermogravimetric data indicated that aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution could remove inorganic salt impurities, such as alkali metal salts. The amount of grafting of benzalkonium chloride of HNT surface was determined by thermogravimetic analysis. PCA of ToF-SIMS spectra could distinguish the samples mined from different geographical locations as well as among surface-treated and untreated samples. Copyright (C) 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
