Removal of textile dyes from aqueous solutions by modified chitosan with thioacetamide
Chitosan membranes were obtained by dissolving the biopolymer in a solution of 5% acetic acid (v/v). Chemical modification of chitosan was done by the addition of thioacetamide in order to obtain a material that absorbed textile dyes more efficiently. The material was analyzed by infrared spectrosco...
