Fabrication of a magnetic Mn(ii) cross-linked chitosan-amine/glutaraldehyde nanocomposite for the rapid degradation of dyes and aerobic selective oxidation of ethylbenzene.

ABSTRACT: Owing to the great demand for using sustainable, renewable, and widely available materials in catalytic systems for the conversion of waste/toxic material to high value-added and harmless products, biopolymers derived from natural sources have demonstrated great promise as an alternative to state-of-the-art materials that suffer from high costs and limitations. These have encouraged us to design and fabricate a new super magnetization of Mn-Fe₃O₄-SiO₂/amine-glutaraldehyde/chitosan bio-composite (MIOSC-N-et-NH₂@CS-Mn) for advanced/aerobic oxidation process. The morphological and chemical characterization of the as-prepared magnetic bio-composite was assessed using ICP-OES, DR UV-vis, BET, FT-IR, XRD, FE-SEM, HR-TEM, EDS, and XPS techniques.
