The present invention relates to a modified layered double
hydroxide (LDH), particles comprising said modified LDH, a resin composition comprising a resin and said particles, a dispersion comprising a liquid and said particles, and a method for producing said modified LDH. The modified layered double
hydroxide according to the present invention comprises a modified layered double
hydroxide according to formula (I) [[[M12 +] y (M22 +) z] 1-x [M33 +] x (OH) 2] (An-) x / n.mH2O (I) wherein: M1 and M2 are each independently a
divalent metal selected from the group consisting of Mg, Zn, Ca, Sr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Co, Ni, Sn, Pb, Cd and Ba; a
divalent metal, in particular each independently selected from the group consisting of Mg, Zn, Cu, Fe, Mn, Co, Ni and Cd; m3 is a trivalent
metal such as Al and / or Fe; in particular Al; and An-is one or more intercalated n-valent anions, wherein m, x, y and z are values within the range represented by: 0 < = mlt; 2, 0lt; x < = 0.5, 0.5 < = y + z < = 1, the modified layered double hydroxide according to the invention further comprising a modified outer layer wherein the outer layer is modified with an
organic acid derivative or a salt thereof.
