Aspartic Acid- and Glycine-Functionalized Mesoporous Silica as an Effective Adsorbent to Remove Methylene Blue from Contaminated Water by Abdullah M. Alswieleh

“…In this work, aspartic acid- and glycine-functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (Asp-MSNs and Gly-MSNs) were successfully prepared and applied as adsorbents for removal of methylene blue (MB) from contaminated water. The mesoporous structure of the fabricated nanomaterials was confirmed by nitrogen adsorption/desorption with specific surface area of ca. 700 m2/g and pore volume of 0.9 cm3/g for both Asp-MSNs and Gly-MSNs. …”
