Composite Material Based On Cellulose Acetate And Aluminium And Iron Oxides: Preparation And Characterization

The expanding applicability of the nanostructured adsorbent materials in the environmental sector and the increasing demand on the market of such products, made the scientists to continue studying new possibilities of improvement by using different types of metal oxides micro and nanoparticles embedded on a variety on polymers and finding cheaper ways for producing them.The objective of this paper is to establish the optimal preparation method of a composite material based on a cellulose matrix and a mixture of Fe2O3, Fe3O4 and Al2O3. The study contains the morphostructural characterization of the material and the chemical composition in order to evaluate if it is optimal for being tested for its adsorption capacity of the pollutants from waste waters.
