Removal of textile dye from synthetic wastewater using microporous polymer nanocomposite

Nano‐BN/Nano‐TiO2 and micro Mg(OH)2 loaded hybrid ethylene propylene diene monomer elastomer composites for outdoor high‐voltage insulation application

“…Mg(OH) 2 shows a greater thermal decomposition temperature than ATH 9 . Nano scale fillers have been found to enhance the performance of polymer composite as compared to micro fillers (traditional filler) because of lower filler size 10,11 . Moreover, nano fillers have very high surface area 12 .…”

Two-dimensional Cu nanostructures for efficient photo-catalytic degradation of methylene blue

“…Dang et al (2019) prepared WS 2 nanosheets using the hydrothermal method and claimed that these nanosheets are highly efficient in removing methylene blue dye from waste water 26 . In addition, several researchers have also conducted various studies on different nanomaterials towards dye degradation [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39] .…”

“…26 In addition, several researchers have also conducted various studies on different nanomaterials towards dye degradation. [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39] From the foregoing discussion, it has been observed that most of the studies were reported on removing the textile dye from wastewater using hybrid nanosheets synthesized using toxic chemicals and complex heat treatment methods that are not cost-effective. No work has been reported to remove textile dyes such as methylene blue dye using cost-effective metal nanosheets such as copper nanosheets.…”
