Evaluation of Polyurea-Crosslinked Alginate Aerogels for Seawater Decontamination

Evaluation of Polyurea-Crosslinked Alginate Aerogels for Seawater Decontamination

Polyurea-crosslinked Ca-alginate (X-Ca-alginate) aerogel beads (diameter: 3.3 mm) were evaluated as adsorbents of metal ions, organic solvents, and oils. They were prepared via reaction of an aromatic triisocyanate (Desmodur RE) with pre-formed Ca-alginate wet gels and consisted of 54% polyurea and...
