Magnetic gelatin-chitosan hydrogel incorporated with graphene oxide as an effective nanocomposite for methylene blue adsorption

Due to recent environmental issues related to water contamination with different types of pollutants such aspigments, developing new and green catalysts for water treatment is an important research subject. In this study, anovel magnetic nanocomposite based on chitosan and gelatin natural polymers combined with graphene oxide (CS-Gehydrogel/GO/Fe۳O۴) was designed and its ability for methylene blue adsorption was investigated. This composite wascharacterized using FE-SEM, VSM, TGA and FT-IR and the results indicated that this nanocomposite adsorbed ۹۸.۶%of methylene blue, and it can be a potential candidate for water purification applications.
