Removal of Lead and Cadmium Ions from Aqueous Solution by Polyvinyl Alcohol-Modified Kaolinite Clay: A Novel Nano-Clay Adsorbent

Kaolinite clay was modified with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to obtain a PVA–nano-clay adsorbent. X-Ray diffraction measurements of the adsorbent showed no observable change in the d-spacing of its crystal lattice. Scanning electron microscopy of the PVA-modified nano-clay adsorbent indicated the presen...
