Summary: Fe3O4@SiO2 core-shell nanoparticles were synthesized and functionalized for studying their magnetic, structural, and adsorption properties. The magnetic core of the nanoparticles showed nanocrystalline structure with an amorphous silica shell, and the nanoparticles exhibited high saturation magnetization. The adsorption studies on three dyes showed that the nanoparticles followed pseudo-second order kinetics and had maximum adsorption capacity for Congo red according to the Langmuir isotherm.

Summary: This study developed multi-carboxyl functionalized Fe3O4@SiO2 magnetic nanoparticles (mCMNPs) through simplified modification strategies for the removal of methylene blue (MB) in water treatment. It was found that increasing the carboxyl content on the surface of CMNPs significantly improved the removal process. Among different types of CMNPs, mCMNPs with the highest surface carboxyl densities showed the highest removal efficiency. Optimized parameters including solution pH, initial MB concentration, and sorption time were determined to achieve the best removal efficiency. The synthesized mCMNPs exhibited excellent regeneration ability and recyclability, making them a promising adsorbent for the removal of MB in water treatment.
