Ti3C2Tx MXene core-shell spheres for ultrahigh removal of mercuric ions
Open accessAbstract
Abstract Two-dimensional (2-D) titanium carbide MXene core (Ti3C2Tx) shell aerogel spheres (MX-SA) for mercuric ion removal were designed and fabricated with varying concentrations of Ti3C2Tx MXene and sodium alginate (SA) using a facile method. Owing to their unique inside structures, high porosities, large specific surface areas, oxygenated functional groups of MXene nanosheets, and available active binding sites, the synthesized microspheres constitute a unique adsorbent for heavy metals removal in water. The MX-SA4:20 spheres exhibit an exceptional adsorption capacity of 932.84 mg/g for Hg2+, which is among the highest value reported for adsorbents. The adsorbent exhibits high single- and multi-component removal efficiencies, with 100% efficiency for Hg2+ and >90% efficiency for five heavy metal ions. The synthesized materials are highly efficient for Hg2+ removal under extreme pH conditions (0.5–1.0 M HNO3) and have additional excellent reproducible properties. The micro-size and spherical shape of MX-SA4:20 also allow it to be used in column-packed devices.

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.
