Modified silicon carbide nanoparticles using stearic acid

In the present work, silicon carbide nanoparticles was modidied using stearicacid via hydrothermal method as an efficient sorbent to capture azo dyes from aqueous solution. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results confirmed coating of stearic acid on silicon carbide nanoparticles. The adsorption of dye from the aqueous solution using modified nanoparticles showed that the adsorptio efficiency of modified silicon carbide.
