Silver/quartz nanocomposite as an adsorbent for removal of mercury (II) ions from aqueous solutions
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and silver/quartz nanocomposite (Ag/Q)NPs)) were synthesized by sol-gel method using table sugar as chelating agent. The synthesized nanosized materials were used for mercury ions adsorption from aqueous solutions. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (X...
