Polyacrylonitrile support impregnated with amine-functionalized graphitic carbon nitride/magnetite composite nanofibers towards enhanced arsenic remediation: A mechanistic approach.

Recently, novel composite materials are rapidly being explored for water treatment applications. However, their physicochemical behavior and mechanistic investigations are still a mystery. Therefore, our key prospect is to develop a highly stable mixed-matrix adsorbent system using polyacrylonitrile (PAN) support impregnated with amine-functionalized graphitic carbon nitride/magnetite (gCN-NH/FeO) composite nanofibers (PAN/gCN-NH/FeO: PCNFe) by simple electrospinning techniques.
