Crosslinked Carboxymethyl Sago Starch/Citric Acid Hydrogel for Sorption of Pb<sup>2+</sup>, Cu<sup>2+</sup>, Ni<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup> from Aqueous Solution

Crosslinked Carboxymethyl Sago Starch/Citric Acid Hydrogel for Sorption of Pb<sup>2+</sup>, Cu<sup>2+</sup>, Ni<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup> from Aqueous Solution

In the present study, CMSS (carboxymethyl sago starch)-based hydrogel was synthesized by crosslinking with citric acid via esterification and then applied as a metal sorbent to overcome excessive heavy metal pollution. The CMSS/CA (carboxymethyl sago starch/citric acid) hydrogel was characterized by...
