Several posts have clarified tubules / clay relationship.
I have been calling them nanotubules (nanometer scale), but the literature refers to them as microtubules (micrometer scale). Just wanted to correct that, so I won't repeat my mistake of trying to compare them to carbon nanotubes. The halloysite microtubules primary attribute of interest seems to be slow release of encapsulated agents and not the fanciful attributes of nanotubes.
