Tuning the Fe(II)/hydroxide Ratio during Synthesis of Magnetite Nanoparticles to Maximize Cr(VI) Uptake Capacity

The impact of hydroxyl excess as defined by the Fe(II)/hydroxide ratio during the synthesis of Fe3O4 nanoparticles by oxidative precipitation of FeSO4 was examined as a critical parameter determining the potential for Cr(VI) uptake from polluted water. Various samples were prepared by varying the OH...
