Radiation-modified wool for adsorption of redox metals and potentially for nanoparticles
Electron beam irradiated sheep wool with absorbed radiation doses ranging from 0 to 165 kGy showed good adsorption properties toward copper cations. The Cu(ii) being Lewis acid generated several types of complex salts based on carboxylates or cysteinates with ligands available in keratin. Under thes...
