A novel nanocomposite based on black wattle (BW) tannin and nanocellulose was prepared and applied in heavy metal ions adsorptive removal from aqueous solutions. Firstly, nanocrystalline cellulose was oxidized by sodium periodate to get dialdehyde nanocellulose (DANC). BW tannin was then covalently immobilized onto DANC, which was used as both the matrix and crosslinker, to obtain tannin-nanocellulose (TNCC) composite. The resulting nanocomposite was characterized using FTIR, AFM, and TG. The successful immobilization was confirmed by the chromogenic reaction between FeCl 3 and TNCC and FT-IR analysis. AFM images revealed that TNCC was ellipsoidal particles with lengths ranging from 100–400 nm. Zeta potential measurement showed that TNCC was negative charged at a pH range from 1–12. Compared to the original tannin, the thermal stability of TNCC was slightly increased by the addition of nanocellulose. TNCC demonstrated the maximum adsorption efficiency at pH 2 for Cr(VI) and pH 6 for Cu(II) and Pb(II), respectively. The adsorption for these three metal ions followed pseudo second-order kinetics, indicating the chemisorption nature. The adsorption isotherms all fitted well with the Sips model, and the calculated maximum adsorption capacities were 51.846 mg g −1 , 53.371 mg g −1 and 104.592 mg g −1 for Cu(II), Pb(II) and Cr (VI), respectively.

A novel composite basing on the Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticle, the graphite oxide nanosheet (GON), and the citric acid-crosslinked β-cyclodextrin polymer (CA-CDP) was prepared for the purpose of removing the methylene blue (MB) dye from water. The structure of the resultant Fe 3 O 4 /GON/CA-CDP composite was investigated by the scanning electron microscope, the two dimensional EDS mapping, the thermal gravimetric analyzer, the Fourier transform infrared spectroscope, the wide angle X-ray diffraction, the X-ray photoelectron spectroscope, and the zeta potential measurement. The Fe 3 O 4 /GON/CA-CDP composite not only had a good MB adsorption capacity of 173 mg/g but also a high saturation magnetization of 36.4 emu/g. It was found that the MB adsorption capacity of the Fe 3 O 4 /GON/CA-CDP composite increased with the increasing initial MB solution pH value especially in the low-pH-value range. Moreover, the MB adsorption mechanism, the MB adsorption isotherm, and the MB adsorption kinetic of the Fe 3 O 4 /GON/CA-CDP composite were investigated. It was found that 1) the good adsorption ability of the Fe 3 O 4 /GON/CA-CDP composite for the MB dye originated from the electrostatic attraction, the Lewis acid-Lewis base interaction, the host-guest supramolecular interaction and the π-π interaction, and 2) the MB adsorption isotherm and the MB adsorption kinetic of the Fe 3 O 4 /GON/CA-CDP composite could be well explained by the Sips model and the intraparticle diffusion model, correspondingly.

In this study, a series of imprinted poly(methacrylic acid- co -ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) nanocarriers for diclofenac and corresponding nonimprinted polymer nanocarriers have been synthesized in 4 different types of solvents by precipitation polymerization. The products were characterized by Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller measurement. Results showed that uniformly sized molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) nanospheres with relatively good porosity could only be obtained in acetonitrile. The effects of solvents on the recognition and release properties of polymer particles were also carefully investigated. The binding experiments indicated that MIPs prepared in acetonitrile displayed much higher binding capacity than other MIPs with a maximum binding capacity of 65.18 mg g −1 . The Scatchard analysis showed that synthetic MIPs have special recognition sites for diclofenac, while nonimprinted polymers have not. The Sips model could provide a best fit to the equilibrium data of nanocarriers over whole concentrations. The experimental data of an adsorption kinetic study were well fitted to the pseudo–second-order kinetic model, indicating the chemisorption mechanism between diclofenac and MIPs in the process of adsorption. The drug release of diclofenac from MIPs could well be described by the Ritger-Peppas model, suggesting a non-Fickian diffusion mechanism. In addition, we successfully used MIPs to extract diclofenac at low levels from fetal bovine serum.

In this study, sponge-like chitosan capsules (CTS-S) were successfully prepared as efficient adsorbent through a facile and green method. The cross-linked porous structure and abundant adsorption sites of CTS-S led to stable and remarkable adsorption efficacy for the purification of wastewater containing anionic dyes in a wide pH range. The highest maximum adsorption capacity for Congo red (CR), Reactive brilliant blue KN-R (KNR), and Methyl blue (MB) were 1372.49, 881.75, and 169.04 mg/g, respectively. Kinetics study suggested that KN-R and CR adsorption processes were best depicted by the PSO model, while PFO model was applicable for MB. Adsorption isotherms of CR, KNR, MB conformed to the Sips model, demonstrating that the adsorption of CR, KNR, MB onto CTS-S was monolayer and heterogeneous. Adsorption mechanism insights further verified that electrostatic forces, hydrogen bonds, and n-π stacking worked for efficient removal of CR, KNR, MB by CTS-S, which was supported by characterization results and DFT calculation. Overall, CTS-S provided a useful and promising option as low-cost and eco-friendly absorbents for the adsorption of synthetic dyes.
