چکیده

We report a novel gelator functionalised with hydrazides (as replacements for carboxylic acids) which, as a result, is able to assemble into hydrogels across a wide pH range - this gelator exhibits pH-switchable dye adsorption-desorption dependent on protonation of the target dyes and their resulting interactions with the self-assembled gel nanofibres.

Preparation and Characterization of Amphoteric Cellulose Hydrogels as Adsorbents for the Anionic Dyes in Aqueous Solutions

A series of cellulose ampholytes (CAms), with substitution degrees of cationic groups (DSC) of 0.41, 0.79, and 1.08, and with a substitution degree of anionic groups of 0.68, was prepared from sodium carboxymethylcellulose by a cationization reaction with 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride. The obtained CAms were crosslinked by ethyleneglycoldiglycidylether (EGDE) to obtain cellulose pol...

Application of magnetized Sawdust Cross-linked by polyethyleniminefor removal Zn2+ from aqueous solution

The need to elimination heavy metal from aqueous solutions cannot be over emphasized.Very studies have investigated the removal heavy metal from water. In this study a new magnetic nanocomposite of PEI on magnetized Sawdust (SD/MNP/PEI) was prepared. Investigations were conducted to study the adsorption behavior of heavy metal Zn (II) on the SD/MNP/PEI nanocomposite in aqueous medium by varying...

Magnetic Solid Phase Extraction and Removal of Five Cationic Dyes from Aqueous Solution Using Magnetite Nanoparticle Loaded Platanusorientalis Waste Leaves

This paper reports on synthesis of a magnetic adsorbent for wastewater treatment purposes. In this regard, platanus orientalis waste leaves were chosen as a cheap material for preparing the magnetic adsorbent by loading magnetite nanoparticles on it. The synthesized adsorbent was characterized using scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffractometer. Then, it was used for magnetic solid phas...

Cross-linked quaternary chitosan as an adsorbent for the removal of the reactive dye from aqueous solutions.

Adsorption of reactive orange 16 by quaternary chitosan salt (QCS) was used as a model to demonstrate the removal of reactive dyes from textile effluents. The polymer was characterized by infrared (IR), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDXS) analyses and amount of quaternary ammonium groups. The adsorption experiments were conducted at different pH values and initial dye concentrations. Ad...

ADSORPTION BEHAVIOR OF Cd, Pb, AND Ni FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS ON CELLULOSE-BASED HYDROGELS

Removal of Cd 2+ , Pb 2+ , and Ni 2+ from aqueous solutions using cellulosegraft-acrylic acid (C-g-AA) hydrogels was investigated. Various factors affecting the adsorption capacity, such as pH, time, initial ions concentration, and competitive ions, were tested. The results showed that the adsorption of hydrogels was very pH dependent, and maximum adsorption was obtained at a pH of 5.0. The ads...
