A new nanohybrid material constructed from Keggin-type polyoxometalate and Cd(II) semicarbazone Schiff base complex with excellent adsorption properties for the removal of cationic dye pollutants
A new nanohybrid containing Cd(II) semicarbazone and PMo12O403− was synthesized. This nanohybrid revealed a 3D supramolecular structure via hydrogen interactions. This nanohybrid was tested as an adsorbent for the removal of dye pollutants. The results showed that the nanohybrid is an excellent adsorbent for cationic dyes. The nanohybrid can be easily separated and reused without the loss of ability.
