Selective recognition of metal ions is a real challenge for a large range of applications in the
analytical field (from extraction to detection and quantification). For that purpose, ion …

A novel magnetic nano-adsorbent (MNP-NH2) has been developed by the covalent binding
of 1, 6-hexadiamine on the surface of Fe3O4 nanoparticles for removal of Cu2+ ions from …

Adsorption of problematic copper ions as one of the endocrine disruptive substances from
aqueous solution onto nanoscale zerovalent iron (nZVI) was studied. The high pore size …

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

A magnetic guanidinylated chitosan (MGC) nanobiocomposite was designed and evaluated
by two applications, as a high potent adsorbent in the adsorption process of heavy and toxic …

We report on the efficient adsorption of gold ions from aqueous systems with thioamide-
group chelating nanofiber membranes. The obtained membranes were prepared by a …

Nanostructured materials have been successfully applied to efficiently remove toxic and
carcinogenic contaminants such as heavy metals from wastewater. In this work …

Aminated polyacrylonitrile (APAN) nanofiber mat was a surface modification of electrospun
polyacrylonitrile (e-spun PAN) with diethylenetriamine (DETA). It was developed for the …

Joint mechanical defibrillation was successfully used to downsize chitin micro-particles
(CMP) into nanofibrils without changing its chemical or crystalline structure. The fine chitin …

In this study, cryogels containing imidazole functional groups were prepared by two different
approaches and were used in the removal of Pb2+, Cd2+, Zn2+ and Cu2+ ions from …
