Abstract

A porous 3D folic acid (F)-polyaniline (PANI) hybrid hydrogel (F-PANI), produced by in situ polymerization of aniline, exhibit highest compressive stress (15.1 kPa), 3D hierarchical network morphology with BET surface area 236 m 2 /g. Here, PANI is present in emeraldine salt (ES) state, which facilitates excellent adsorption of anionic pollutants. It exhibits an extremely high adsorption capacity for Cr(VI) and during adsorption Cr(VI) is reduced to Cr(III).The electrical impedance spectra of the Cr(VI) adsorbed xerogel, support the conversion of PANI chains from ES to pernigraniline base(PB) making the xerogel more resistive. It also selectively adsorbs anionic dyes, the adsorption capacity increases with decrease of pH. Both the adsorption data are found to be well explained through pseudo-second-order kinetic model, and they obey Langmuir adsorption isotherm. F-PANI2 showed high adsorption capacities selectively toward anionic pollutants, for example, Cr(VI), eosine yellow, rose bengal, methyl orange, and low adsorption capacities for Hg(II), Pb(II), rhodamineB, bismark brownY methylene blue, and neutral red. The removal of Cr(VI) and anionic dyes are very much effective at neutral and acidic pH. After dye/Cr(VI) adsorption the Nyquist plot indicate significant decrease in the capacitance of xerogels. Cyclic experiments show that, F-PANI xerogels can be effectively reused to remove Cr(VI) from different contaminated water.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The MoS2 quantum dots exhibit four UV-Vis peaks at 384, 446, 605, and 668 nm; the 384 and 446 nm peaks correspond to valence band to conduction band transition and the 605 and 668 nm peaks are assigned to the Brillouin zone of the K point.

    “MoS2 QDs exhibit four peaks; the two peaks at 384 and 446 nm correspond to valence band to the conduction band transition, and next two peaks at 605 and 668 nm are assigned to the Brillouin zone of K point.[26,27]”

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.
