Abstract:Cobalt mullite adsorbent for the robust adsorption performance towards Victoria Blue (VB) and Metanil Yellow (MY) is fabricated by the sol-gel method at room temperature using dipropylamine as a structuredirecting agent. The synthesized adsorbent is characterized by XRD, FT-IR and HRTEM. From these analyses, it is found that dipropylamine binds with the alumina and cobalt oxide which makes it into tetrahedral to octahedral form. This interaction causes the formation of cobalt mullite. It is observed that trigo… 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.
