Preparation and Characterization of Newly Nanocomposites Calix[4]Arenes Derivatives-Functionalized Smectite
摘要
Calixarenes and their derivatives are widely used in water depollution. Furthermore, functionalized clay is an effective adsorbent of heavy metals. In this context, the present work focuses on the synthesis and characterization of three newly developed nanocomposites (Chb(APTES)-Calix2, Chb(APTES)-Calix3 and Chb(APTES)-Calix4). First, the smectite clay is functionalized with APTES silane. Then, calix [
