Abstract: Amidoxime and carboxylate-containing polymer adsorbents derived from acrylic yarn exhibit high adsorption capacity for lead(ii) (Pb2+) ions in water. The adsorption process follows pseudo-second-order kinetics and fits the extended Langmuir isotherm model with the maximum… read more here.
