IMPACT OF ULTRASONIC TREATMENT AS A CATALYST ON ZIRCONIA-PILLARED BENTONITE

Dataset Description This dataset contains all experimental data generated and analyzed for the study on the catalytic impact of ultrasonic treatment on zirconia-pillared bentonite. The files include characterization results, images, and measurements that support the findings reported in the manuscript. Contents of the dataset: SEM Images – High-resolution scanning electron microscopy images showing the surface morphology of bentonite before and after zirconia pillaring and ultrasonic treatment. XRD Data – X-ray diffraction patterns and raw data files indicating the crystalline phases and lattice parameters of zirconia-pillared bentonite. BET Analysis – Surface area, pore volume, and pore size distribution data measured using BET (Brunauer–Emmett–Teller) analysis for both treated and untreated samples. Experimental Notes – Any additional spreadsheets or text files summarizing experimental conditions, treatment parameters, and observations during the study.
