We investigate the competition between anisotropic excluded-volume andrepulsive electrostatic interactions in suspensions of thin charged colloidaldiscs, by means of Monte-Carlo simulations and dynamical characterization ofthe structures found. We show that the original intrinsic anisotropy of theelectrostatic potential between charged platelets, obtained within thenon-linear Poisson-Boltzmann formalism, not only rationalizes the genericfeatures of the complex phase diagram of charged colloidal platelets such asGibbsite and Beidellite clays, but also predicts the existence of novelstructures. In addition, we find evidences of a strong slowing down of thedynamics upon increasing density.
