title: Application of Magnetic Nanocomposites in Water Treatment: Core–Shell Fe3O4 Material for Efficient Adsorption of Cr(VI)
abstract: Since ferric tetroxide (Fe3O4) has strong magnetic properties, coating amorphous silica (SiO2) with Fe3O4 nanoparticles can protect the magnetic Fe3O4 particles and form a new magnetic adsorbent with a core–shell structure and small pore size, the strong magnetic properties of which can efficiently solve the problem of the difficult separation and recovery of heavy metals from wastewater affecting present-day adsorption techniques. In this paper, SiO2-coated nanoscale Fe3O4 particles were prepar
