Abstract
The present invention involves a method of delaminating aggregated particles of natural silicate, nanoplatelet, nanofiber, or nanotube structures. The method comprises diffusing a coating agent in a substantially supercritical fluid between the aggregated particles and catastrophically depressurizing the substantially supercritical fluid to form delaminated particles.
