Adsorptive removal of malachite green using ferromagnetic sterculia gum – graft- poly(n-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylamide)/magnetite nanocomposite

In present scenario, anthropogenic activities have degraded the quality of water bodies to an unbearable level. Discharge untreated industrial and other effluents made unconsumable. Present work is attempt fabricate new stimuli responsive adsorbent based on natural exudate gum sterculia, indigenous for uptake a cationic dye malachite green. Magnetic field terculia gum–graft-poly(n-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylamide) nanocomposite been prepared assessed it as adsorbents enrichment green from aqueous solution. The characterized by FTIR, TG-DTA, VSM swelling studies. results shown superparamagnetic behaviour with saturation magnetization 1.5065 emu/g. adsorption follows Temkin isotherm indicate maximum capacity 19.977 (98.78%) desorption studies demonstrates excellent recovery ability nanocomposite. study confirms prospective applications polysaccharide magnetic hydrogel fruitful greener disposal dyes.
