Adsorption behavior of trace elements of 90Sr on MnO2–ZrO2 loaded with polyacrylonitrile polymer from aqueous solutions
Journal: Scientific Reports
Year: 2023

A MnO<sub>2</sub>-ZrO<sub>2</sub>-polyacrylonitrile (MnO<sub>2</sub>-ZrO<sub>2</sub>-PAN) composite ion exchanger was produced and its properties were examined by Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, The BET (Brunauer, Emmett and Teller) surface area, X-Ray diffraction analysis and thermogravimetric analysis. The adsorption of Strontium (Sr) from solutions by MnO<sub>2</sub>-ZrO<sub>2</sub>-PAN composite was studied thru batch experiments. The distribution Coe
