Abstract:The elimination of iodide (I−) from water is a tough subject due to its low adsorption tendency and high mobility. In this work, MCM-41/Ag2O nanomaterials were prepared, characterized, and employed to adsorb I− from water. The Ag2O nanoparticles were dispersed homogeneously in the pores or at the surface of the MCM-41 support, and the Ag2O nanoparticles in the pores had small particles sizes due to the confinement of the mesoporous channel. The prepared MCM-41/Ag2O nanomaterials exhibited a higher specific sur… Show more
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.
