Reassessing the role of carbon shells in magnetite nanoparticles: a comparative adsorption study of ionic dyes
Abstract
required more than 24 hours to reach equilibrium for both dyes. Isotherm studies further confirmed distinct adsorption behaviors associated with each material system. These findings highlight that bare magnetite offers superior performance for anionic CRed, whereas carbon coating selectively improves uptake of cationic MBlue, highlighting that the benefits of carbon shells are system-dependent rather than universal.
Fields of Study & Subjects
