Synthesis of Hematite Nanodiscs from Natural Laterites and Investigating Their Adsorption Capability of Removing Ni<sup>2+</sup> and Cd<sup>2+</sup> Ions from Aqueous Solutions

Synthesis of Hematite Nanodiscs from Natural Laterites and Investigating Their Adsorption Capability of Removing Ni<sup>2+</sup> and Cd<sup>2+</sup> Ions from Aqueous Solutions

In this work, disc-like hematite (Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) nanoparticles were prepared using a readily available inexpensive earth material, ferruginous laterite, via a low-cost synthesis route. Prepared hematite nanoparticles were characterized using X-Ray diffraction (X...
