Water polluted with heavy-metal ion has been a major problem in recent years. Among
various metal ions, nickel (II) is a priority pollutant commonly found in industrial wastewater …

This work reports the fabrication of a thiol-functionalized cellulose nanofiber membrane that
can effectively adsorb heavy metal ions. Thiol was incorporated onto the surface of cellulose …

In this study, starch based nanocomposite (starch/SnO 2) was synthesized and used as an
effective adsorbent for the removal of Hg 2+ from aqueous medium. The as-prepared …

Sheep wool is keratin-rich by-product of sheep breeding and textile industry. Due to complex
structure of keratin, this wastes are quite resistant to degradation and represent a serious …

Graphene oxide embedded calcium alginate (GOCA) beads were synthesized and further
functionalized/reduced with polyethylenimine to increase their adsorption capacity towards …

We have developed a simple one-step method to synthesize novel supramolecular
polysaccharide composite from cellulose (CEL) and dibenzo-18-crown 6 using ceric …

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofiber mats were prepared by electrospinning and they were
further modified to contain amidino diethylenediamine chelating groups on their surface via …

A thiol-functionalized magnetic mesoporous silica material (called SH-mSi@ Fe 3 O 4),
synthesized by a modified Stöber method, has been investigated as a convenient and …

Cross-linked magnetic chitosan-isatin Schiff's base resin (CSIS) was prepared for adsorption
of metal ions. CSIS obtained was investigated by means of FTIR, 1H NMR, wide-angle X-ray …

In this study, cross-linked magnetic chitosan-phenylthiourea (CSTU) resin were prepared
and characterized by means of FTIR, 1H NMR, SEM high-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD) …
