Adsorption mechanism-based screening of cyclodextrin polymers for adsorption and separation of pesticides from water
TLDR
The adsorption kinetics and isotherms of the polymers toward a mixture of ten distinct pesticides clearly demonstrate that the adsorbents with a homogeneous open network structure can absorb pesticides via multiple adsorbent-adsorbate interactions such as CD inclusion, loading into swelling water and physical Adsorption on network.About:
