Preparation and characterization of the linked lanthanum carboxymethylcellulose microsphere adsorbent for removal of fluoride from aqueous solutions

Abstract

Linked carboxymethyl cellulose microspheres loaded with lanthanum(iii) (linked-CMC–La) were fabricated with glutaraldehyde. The linked-CMC–La had good adsorption properties compared with CMC–La, and also showed better physical properties.
