A comparative metal ion adsorption study by trimesic acid coated alumina: A potent adsorbent

A mechanistic insight into enhanced and selective phosphate adsorption on a coated carboxylated surface

“…This is an effective adsorbent for removing various metal cations ions from aqueous solution [14,15]. Herein, we report the enhanced and selective adsorption of phosphate from aqueous solution throughout a broad pH range (pH ∼ 1.0-8.0).…”

Functionalization of adsorbent with different aliphatic polyamines for heavy metal ion removal: Characteristics and performance

“…Functionalization of various adsorbents for the removal of heavy metal ions from water or wastewater has attracted great research interest in recent years due to the advantages of achieving high efficiency and good selectivity [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. Among the various studies, amine-functionalized adsorbents are perhaps the most common, arising from the strong chelation properties of amine to transition metals.…”

Surface-modification-directed controlled adsorption of serum albumin onto magnetite nanocuboids synthesized in a gel-diffusion technique

“…In our continuous effort to explore the interaction of different molecules on customized solid surfaces [17][18][19][20], in this current article we report the controlled adsorption behavior of bovine serum albumin (BSA) on hydrophilic and hydrophobic modified magnetite nanoparticles. Many methods for magnetite synthesis have been developed, such as sol-gel processes, microemulsion, sputtering, and thermal decomposition [21][22][23][24].…”
