Adsorption Characteristics of Synthesized Polyelectrolytes onto Alumina Nanoparticles and their Application in Antibiotic Removal.

The present study aims to investigate the adsorption of synthesized poly(2-acrylamide-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid) (PAMPs) onto alumina nanoparticles and their application in the removal of ciprofloxacin (CFX) antibiotic from a water environment. The PAMPs were successfully synthesized and characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance and gel-permeation chromatography methods. The number- and weight-average molecular weights of PAMPs were 6.
