Abstract:<p>This study successfully synthesized mesoporous silica using the template methyl ester ricinoleate (MS-TMR) and further functionalized the MS-TMR surface with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES). The functionalization of MS-TMR with APTES was achieved through a 48-hour grafting method. For the adsorption experiments, 20 mg of both MS-TMR and MS-TMR-APTES adsorbents were employed to remove Ni(II) from aqueous solutions at a concentration of 30 mg/L and pH 6. The objective was to assess the adsorption c… Show more
