Green synthesis of magnetic nanocomposite by Cordia Africana (CA) leave extract for the treatment of Methylene blue contaminated water

The magnetic behavior of individual magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles (MNPs) has arisen considerable attention in environmental application. However, magnetic properties and stability weaken due to their high susceptibility to chemical activity (oxidation). Efforts have increasingly been made to encap...

description The magnetic behavior of individual magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles (MNPs) has arisen considerable attention in environmental application. However, magnetic properties and stability weaken due to their high susceptibility to chemical activity (oxidation). Efforts have increasingly been made to encapsulate MNPs by green organic matrix, which considerably improve functionality, stability, cost and reduce back toxicity. Besides, the use of natural zeolite materials has been reported to endows considerable dispersibility and chemical stability for the composite MNPs. In this study, bio-based magnetite nanoparticles were synthesized using an aqueous extract of Cordia Africana (CA) leaves incorporated into the modified Natrolite (NAT) framework as an adsorbent for methylene blue (MB)dye removal from aqua solution.
