This study proposed eco-friendly adsorbents based on poly(glycerol sebacate) (PGS) as efficient dye adsorbents for wastewater treatment. The adsorbents showed high adsorption capacity and removal efficiency, making them suitable for purifying water solutions contaminated with water-soluble dyes.
As a consequence of industrial activities, one of the most prevalent components in wastewater is Water-soluble dyes needed to be removed. In this research, eco-friendly adsorbents based on poly(glycerol sebacate) (PGS), including PGS-graphene oxide nanoparticles (GO), PGS-graft-chitosan(CS), and PGS-CS-GO nanocomposites, have been proposed as efficient dye adsorbents for the wastewater treatment procedure. FESEM images showed that a smooth and uniform structure was created over incorporating CS into PGS. Besides, the presence of CS within PGS/GO nanocomposites had a positive impact on the exfoliation of GO. Moreover, it was found that the incorporation of both CS and GO into PGS reduced the glass transition of PGS. Besides, their coexistence can probably increase the chain regularity in the polymer matrix and cause a relatively larger crystal size of PGS. In this regard, the ternary nanocomposite saw a Tg value of -29.4 degrees C. A high adsorption capacity of 178 mg g-1, as well as 99 removal% efficiency, were observed in the case of the PGS-CS-GO sample after 300 min at a dye concentration of 100 mg L-1 and pH 7. Additionally, the adsorption capacity value of the adsorbent was preserved around 129 mg g-1 after 7 cycles of adsorption-desorption. The findings revealed that innovatively synthesized PGS-g-CS/GO nanocomposites could efficiently remove methylene blue from water solutions. Hence, they can be used as a powerful and influential dye adsorbent to purify water solutions.
