Abstract The synthesis and photochromism of clay-diarylethene (PyDE) hybrid materials have been investigated. The obtained hybrid materials efficiently exhibited photochromism, but its photochromic efficiency decreased when UV and visible irradiation was repeated. This photochromic degradation could be improved by coadsorbing the cationic surfactant molecules with the PyDE molecules.
