Abstract
In this study, polyacrylonitrile was modified to polyamidoxime to enhance foam stabilization and decontamination rate. Polyamidoxime was combined with graphene oxide, 1 wt% of saponins, and 1 wt% of alkyl glycosides to formulate the PAO/GO foam decontaminant. The outcomes demonstrated resulted in the half-life of the foam extending from 32 to 308 min. The PAO/GO foam decontaminant displayed α-ray decontamination rates of 93.30%, 98.34%, and 99.81% on stainless steel, tile, and glass surfaces. Hence, the dual functional PAO/GO in stabilizing foam while enhancing decontamination rates underscores its potential for radioactive decontamination.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
