被引用回数：185 パーセンタイル：98.6(Engineering, Environmental)The organic ligand of N,N(octane-1,8-diylidene)di(2-hydroxyl-3,5-dimethylaniline) was synthesized and anchored onto inorganic mesoporous materials by direct immobilization method for Co(II) ions capturing from waste samples. The interaction of this material with various metal ions was evaluated, and it exhibited distinct color change from whitish to green in the presence of Co(II) ions, detectable even to the naked-eye. The effects of solution pH, contact time, competing ions and initial concentration on Co(II) sorption on NCA were investigated under optimum conditions. The data also clarified that the NCA adsorbent is an efficient and eco-friendly adsorbent for Co(II) treatment. Therefore, the proposed adsorbent can be considered as a potential candidate for Co(II) ions monitoring and removal from wastewater in large-scale operations.

被引用回数：259 パーセンタイル：99.35(Engineering, Environmental)The functional group containing organic ligand was developed and then successfully anchored onto mesoperous silica for the preparation of nano-conjugate adsorbent. After fabrication, the ligand kept open functionality for capturing Pd(II) under optimum conditions. The adsorbent exhibited the distinct color formation after adding the Pd(II) ions both in solid and liquid states. The base metal of Cu(II) and Zn(II) did not hamper the Pd(II) sorption ability of adsorbent in the acidic pH region. Therefore, it was expected that the Pd(II) could be separated from other hard metal ions by the adsorbent. Therefore the proposed adsorbent can be considered as a potential candidate for Pd(II) capturing from waste samples.

被引用回数：177 パーセンタイル：99.21(Chemistry, Analytical)Organic and inorganic based conjugate materials are important in nanotechnology based on the high functionality and stable complex formation with target metal ions at optimum conditions. A new ligand immobilization based dual and tunable conjugate adsorbent was investigated under specific solution acidity for detection and removal of Co(II) and Cu(II) ions. Under the optimum conditions, the calibration graphs were the linear and detection limit which were 0.52 and 0.41 ppb for Co(II) and Cu(II), respectively. The removal efficiency was carried out as a function of solution pH, initial metal ions concentration, and co-existing diverse ions. Sorption equilibrium was well fitted to Langmuir isotherms and determined sorption capacity was 205.33 and 199.20 mg/g for Co(II) and Cu(II), respectively.

被引用回数：182 パーセンタイル：99.2(Chemistry, Applied)Selenium is a very toxic element that at low concentration can affect human beings and living organisms. In this study, the ligand immobilized conjugate adsorbent was developed and selenium (Se(IV)) detection and removal from water were investigated. The conjugate adsorbent was successfully prepared by direct immobilization of organic ligand onto mesoporous inorganic silica. This technique achieved residual Se(IV) concentration less than 10 ppb, which is acceptable by water quality regulations. Therefore, the solid design adsorbent is efficient and cost-effective for selective Se(IV) detection and removal from water.

被引用回数：223 パーセンタイル：99.57(Chemistry, Applied)Lead (Pb(II)) is a very toxic heavy metal that even at low concentration can affect living organisms. Therefore, designing effective materials with high selectivity and cost efficiency is essential for the control capturing of toxic Pb(II) ions. This study developed a ligand based conjugate adsorbent for simultaneous Pb(II) detection and removal from water samples. The experiment conditions were optimized based on contact time, solution acidity, initial Pb(II) concentration and pH value and diverse metal salt concentrations. The presence of other cations and anions did not adversely affect the Pb(II) capturing by the adsorbent. The maximum sorption capacity was determined to be as high as 195.31 mg/g.
