In this study, magnetite nanoparticles (IONPs), hydroxyapatite (HAp), hybrid composite of magnetite/hydroxyapatite (IONPs-HAp) were prepared by the hydrothermal method. The prepared materials were characterized via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM/EDX), and Zeta phoremeter. The obtained results show that the Fe3O4 have a cubic crystal structure and have a nanoparticle's size (< 100 nm), the nano Fe3O4 were well dispersed with the hydroxyapatite to form the composite IONPs-HAp materials. The adsorption capacity of these materials for 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) and Chrysoidine crystal removal were also investigated in the same condition. The prepared IONPs-HAp composite materials have the ability to adsorb selectivity with 2,4-D and Chrysoidine. There results show the potential application of hybrid composite magnetite/hydroxyapatite in the field of environmental treatment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
