Chitosan is a polymer from natural source with a wide range of applications, such as in the adsorption of heavy metals. However, it presents limitation in relation to pH, because it is insoluble in neutral and alkaline. Thus, a good alternative has been the use of derivatives of chitosan, as carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC). This chemical modification of chitosan may favor the adsorption process, because it broadens the pH range of solubility and the quantity of chemical groups available for the uptake of ions. This work was carried out the synthesis and characterization of carboxymethyl chitosan. The properties of derivatives synthesized were assessed through the study of solubility at different pHs and using the techniques of potentiometric titration, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy and thermal analysis. The results have demonstrated the effective incorporation of carboxylic groups in the structure of chitosan, as well as the dependence of degree of substitution with the concentration of hydroxide during the synthesis. Hence, the chemical functionalization of chitosan for producing carboxymethyl chitosan offers the possibility of applying this new adsorbent for water treatment.

Liquid Deposition

Metal colloids in 2-mercaptoethanol using nanoparticles (NPs) of iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), and nickel (Ni) were prepared by chemical liquid deposition method. Transmission electron microscopy, electron diffraction, UV-VIS spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy with electron dispersive X-ray spectroscopy characterized the resulting colloidal dispersions. The NPs exhibited sizes with ranges from 9.8 nm for Fe, 3.7 nm for Co, and 7.2 nm for Ni. The electron diffraction shows the presence of the metals in its elemental state Fe (0), Co (0), and Ni (0) and also some compounds FeO (OH), CoCo2S4, and NiNi2S4.

We report the synthesis and characterization of iptycene–naphthazarin dyes by using a sequential Diels–Alder approach. The tautomerization of naphthazarin was used as the key step in the synthesis, with structures confirmed by single-crystal X-ray and NMR analysis. The systematic trends in electronic properties were investigated by UV/Vis spectroscopy. BF2 complexes of the dyes were prepared by reaction with BF3·OEt2 in CH2Cl2.

Clean Drinking Water

The availability of clean drinking water becomes a critical issue for all the people of the world due to a rapid increase in population and industrialization. The water bodies get contaminated due to the discharge of wastewater, that will not only disturb the aquatic life but also badly affect human health. Therefore, different methods are adopted to treat the contaminated water to make it clean and safe for people. In last few years, the nanomaterials have gained much attention for water treatment because of their unique properties. Among all nanomaterials, magnetic nanomaterials are considered more efficient and attractive because of their easy separation and reusable property. In this chapter, a brief review related to synthesis and characterization of MNM was studied along with their application in removal of dyes, heavy metals, and microbes from wastewater through simple adsorption processes.
