Since primordial times, humanity has used clay as an essential raw material in the commercial and industrial sectors. Nanocomposites such as nanoclay have a significant gain in mechanical properties, being used by industry in various applications. In this article, the raw clay was collected, colloidal suspension was carried out and the nanoclay resulted, with the objective of producing a nanocomposite from the raw clay collected from the soil, presenting its characteristics, chemical compositions and analysis of its structure. The methodology was followed in the production of nanoclay through colloidal suspension and physical analysis of the raw clay. The nanoclay produced was followed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM and SEM), X-ray Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) analyses. Based on the results that were obtained, it became possible to obtain satisfactory results with the production of nanoclay in this study, being easy to prepare and with low cost, it is possible to prepare a nanocomposite for various applications.
