Fast capture of methyl-dyes over hierarchical amino-Co0.3Ni0.7Fe2O4@SiO2 nanofibrous membranes†
Abstract
Flexible polydopamine–Co0.3Ni0.7Fe2O4@SiO2 NFMs with a hierarchical structure and strong magnetism were prepared by gelation, calcination and dopamine self-polymerization on electrospun SiO2 NFMs. The resulting membranes displayed a short response time (10 min/80%), high adsorption capacity and excellent adsorption affinity (97%) for methyl orange capture.
