Highly efficient removal of trace metal ions by using poly(acrylic acid) hydrogel adsorbent

Hydrogels as metal ions adsorbents are commonly applied in wastewater treatment field. However, low swelling ratio (SR) of ever reported hydrogel adsorbents prevents adsorptive sites from effectively exposing to metal ions, leading to unpleasant removal efficiency for trace metal ions. Designing hig...
