Preparation of a Novel Sorbent Based on Pickering Emulsions Polymerization Method for Encapsulating Extractants and the Adsorption of Indium in an Aqueous Solution
Abstract:The recovery of indium from impregnating resins in water is usually limited by the poor bonding of the extractant to the carrier resin. Pickering emulsion hydrogels (PEHGs) encapsulating extractant bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate are prepared by oil-in-water Pickering emulsions polymerization method using polyvinyl alcohol and sodium alginate as continuous phases and nano-SiO 2 and alkylphenol ethoxylates-10 (OP-10) as emulsifiers. PEHGs are used to recover trivalent In(III) from water to study its encapsulation a… 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.
