Abstract

Poly(vinyl alcohol)-sodium alginate-chitosan-montmorillonite nanosheets (MMTNS) hydrogel beads with porous and steady structure were fabricated via hydrogen-bond and electrostatic interactions, and were characterized by FTIR, TG, SEM and effecting tests. The results suggested MMTNS could support and maintain the porous structure, making an open excess for MB molecules. The increasing proportion of MMTNS in hydrogel beads enhanced the MB removal. Hydrogel beads possessed higher affinity to MB at high pHs due to the stronger electronegativity triggered by deprotonation of hydroxyls. Moreover, hydrogel beads had a good stability and reusability. The adsorption process was correlated with Elovich kinetics model, and fitted well with Freundlich, Redlich-Peterson and Sips isotherm models. The adsorption of MB on hydrogel beads was a disorderliness, endothermic and spontaneous process detected by the thrmodynamic. MB molecules reacted with the oxygen atoms in hydroxyl and substitute the Na+ in MMTNS were proved by EDS, XPS and Na+ concentration variation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
