The adsorption of toxic matters from water using zeolites has been developed due to the low
cost of operation and adsorbent. However, their use due to the lower efficiency of natural …

Plants are active contributors to the betterment of human living conditions and play a critical
role in ecological systems. During the process of plant growth and development, several …

In this work, starch/poly (acylic acid) hydrogels were synthesized through a free radical
polymerization technique. The molar ratios of acrylic acid to N, N′-methylenebisacrylamide …

Magnetic starch microspheres (MSMs) and methyl methacrylate magnetic starch
microspheres (MMA-MSMs) were prepared via an inverse emulsion polymerization by …

The overwhelming concerns of water pollution, industrial discharges and environmental
deterioration by various organic and inorganic substances, including dyes, heavy metals …

The increase in population growth, industrialization and climate change will lead to an
increase in scarcity of water in the next few decades. To address this challenge, there is an …

Herein, a low-cost, biodegradable, and high-performance microwave shielding
graphite/starch material was fabricated via constructing a cation-π interaction between …

Herein, we represent a novel ecofriendly bilayer-amine group incorporated microcrystalline
cellulose (MCC)/chitosan (CS) hydrogel, fabricated via integrating polydopamine (PDA) and …

Over the past three decades, chemical and biological water contamination has become a
major concern, particularly in the industrialized world. Heavy metals, aromatic compounds …

Corn starch dispersions were heated with ethanol (E) and reacted with phytic acid (E-PA),
citric acid (E-CA), and a mixture of phytic and citric acid (E-PACA) under dry-heating to …
