- Abstract
Abstract: Materials with layered structures at the nanoscale have lately drawn significant attention from engineers and scientists in the fields of physics, chemistry, and mathematics, due to the unique characteristics that originate from their hierarchical structure. The nanosized free space between each two adjacent layers, so‐called the interlayer space, is an attractive place that can be manipulated by incorporating different molecular species to generate novel physical and mechanical behaviors. This review highlights the latest studies and new important developments on possible methods of intercalating popular species such as hydrophobic and hydrophilic polymers into the interlayer spaces of layered materials. It also provides a description of intercalation processes as well as final applications for better understanding, as it is believed to be an effective factor in utilizing these materials in research and industry. Finally, this review gives perspectives on the future applicants of inorganic layered materials filled with polymers with different hydrophilicity properties.
