Nylon 6 electrospun nanofibers mat as effective sorbent for the removal of estrogens: kinetic and thermodynamic studies

Abstract: Nylon 6 electrospun nanofibers mat was prepared via electrospinning for the removal of three estrogens, namely, diethylstilbestrol (DES), dienestrol (DS), and hexestrol (HEX) from aqueous solution. Static adsorption as well as the dynamic adsorption was evaluated by means of batch and dynamic disk flow mode, respectively. The kinetic study indicated that the adsorption of the target compounds could be well fitted by the pseudo-second-order equation, suggesting the intra-particle/membrane diffusion process as t… Show more

“…From the plot, the value of ∆rHo was 107 kJ/mole with the positive value implied endothermic reaction involved during the process of adsorption. Thus, the protein adsorption is predominantly driven by chemisorption as the value of ∆rHo was between 40-120 kJ/mole, rather than common physical adsorption [13], [11]. The results were supported from the characterization of functional groups by using FTIR-ATR ( Figure 4).…”
