Investigating the Heavy Metal Adsorption of Mesoporous Silica Materials Prepared by Microwave Synthesis
Abstract Mesoporous silica materials (MSMs) of the MCM-41 type were rapidly synthesized by microwave heating using silica fume as silica source and evaluated as adsorbents for the removal of Cu2+, Pb2+, and Cd2+ from aqueous solutions. The effects of microwave heating times on the pore structure of...
