PREPARATION METHODS OF COPPER-FERROCYANIDE FUNCTIONALIZED MAGNETIC NANOPARTICLES FOR SELECTIVE REMOVAL OF CESIUM IN AQUEOUS SOLUTION

摘要

Copper ferrocyanide functionalized magnetite nanoparticles (Cu-FC-MNPs) were successfully synthesized by the immobilization of copper and ferrocyanide on the surface of [1-(2 amino-ethyl)-3-aminopropyl] trimethoxysilane modified magnetite nanoparticles. A radioactive cesium (Cs) adsorption test was carried out to investigate the effectiveness of Cu-FC-MNPS for the removal of radioactive Cs. Furthermore, the Cu-FC-MNPs showed excellent separation ability by an external magnet in an aqueous solution.
