Abstract
Abstract In this study, new 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde linked Fe 3 O 4 /chitosan-polyacrylamide nanocomposite (Fe 3 O 4 @CS@Am@Nph) were prepared. The synthesized nanocomposite was characterized by (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), vibrating Sample Magnetometry (VSM) and Termogravimetric Analysis (TGA). The 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde modified Fe 3 O 4 @CS@Am@Nph nanocomposite was used as an effective adsorbent for removal of everzol black from aqueous solutions by batch adsorption procedure. The effects of important parameters on the surface absorption process of everzol black dye, including pH, contact time, adsorbent dosage and initial dye concentration were studied. The Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin adsorption models were used to describe adsorption isotherms and constants. The equilibrium results revealed that the adsorption behavior of the everzol black dye on the Fe 3 O 4 @CS@Am@Nph nanocomposite fitted well with the Langmuir model. On the basis of the Langmuir analysis, the maximum adsorption capacity (qm) of the Fe 3 O 4 @CS@Am@Nph for everzol black was found to be 63.69 mg/g. The kinetic studies indicated that adsorption in all cases to be a pseudo second-order process. Further, the thermodynamic studies showed the adsorption to be a spontaneous and endothermic process.
