Magnetic cellulose–chitosan hydrogels prepared from ionic liquids as reusable adsorbent for removal of heavy metal ions

Abstract

Magnetic hybrid hydrogels with a novel polymeric coating consisting of chitosan and cellulose were prepared. By coating cellulose and chitosan, we combined the renewability and biocompatibility of cellulose and chitosan as well as the magnetic properties of Fe3O4 to create a hybrid system to adsorb heavy metals.
