Adsorption of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions using mesoporous chitosan–zinc oxide composite material

Adsorption of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions using mesoporous chitosan–zinc oxide composite material

Chitosan–zinc oxide composite with an average size of 33 nm was synthesized by facile chemical precipitation technique for application in the removal of water contaminants such as dyes. Malachite green (MG) was the model colorant for the sorption process. Material characterization was achieved using...
