Abstract

In the present study, poly(acrylamide-co-itaconic acid) hybrid nanocomposites were synthesized via free radical copolymerization method. Octavinyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (OV-POSS) with different weight ratio (0, 4, 8, 12 and 14 wt%) was utilized as a cross-linker. Dye adsorption properties of the as-prepared hybrid nanocomposites were investigated for crystal violet (CV) elimination from aqueous solution. The effect of various parameters, such as OV-POSS content, adsorbent amount, pH, temperature, contact time and initial dye concentration, on the adsorption of CV was studied. Moreover, adsorption kinetic, isotherm and the thermodynamic of the CV adsorption on the so-called hybrid nanocomposites were studied.
