β-Cyclodextrin modified Nano γ-alumina Synthesized by Co-precipitation Method for Absorption Properties Improvement of Nano Alumina

Abstract

In recent years, an exponential trends in the field of nano absorbents synthesis for water pollution especially heavy metals has been observed. Herein, we report the synthesis of γ-alumina/ β-cyclodextrin nanostructure as heavy metal adsorbent by co-precipitation method and characterization by the Fourier Transmission Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X- ray powder Diffraction (XRD) and, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The results of XRD and SEM showed nano γ-Al2O3/β-cyclodextrin with 20-30 nm. It has been demonstrated that this nanostructure can be perceived to be potential adsorbent for heavy metal adsorptions.
