The intercalation of the guest anionic MO species into host M(II)/Al(III) LDHs differing by the nature of the divalent cations (M(II) = Mg, Ni or Zn) was achieved by anionic exchange of the initially NO(3)(-) present in the interlayer space and led to MO/LDH intercalation compounds. The exchange process was followed by XRD and UV-visible absorption spectroscopy at different stages. Almost all MO in solution is uptaken by the Mg-containing LDH in the concentration range corresponding to its anionic exchange capacity (AEC). A lower exchange is reached with the Ni- and Zn-containing LDHs, for which the diffusion of MO is limited due to a larger crystallite size. MO-Zn/Al LDH intercalation compounds exhibit the highest crystallinity and display a remarkable stacking of the layers at maximal MO exchange. This behaviour can be assigned to the higher intrinsic charge density of the host layers in agreement with its lower M(II)/Al(III) molar ratio (Zn(II)/Al(III) approximate to 1.5 whereas Mg(II)/Al(III) and Ni(II)/Al(III) = 2). The maximum amount of MO retained by the different LDHs is higher for Mg-containing LDH, than for Ni- and Zn-containing LDH, reaching respectively 1.15, 0.84 and 0.77 g/g.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5-6</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;1.27&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
