Highly enhanced cationic dye adsorption from water by nitro-functionalized Zn-MOF nano/microparticles and a biomolecular binder for improving the reusability

Abstract

Zinc-metal organic frameworks (Zn-MOFs) of phthalic acid (ZnPA) and nitro-phthalic acid (ZnNPA) microcrystalline particles were fabricated and utilized for the removal of organic cationic dyes (crystal violet (CV), methylene blue...
