Why is it important?
This research is particularly important because it introduces novel organic-inorganic materials that can significantly improve the efficiency and durability of sorption systems used for water purification. Understanding how different molar ratios of monomers affect the properties of these materials allows for precise adjustment of their characteristics to the specific needs of purification technologies. In addition, the developed materials can have a wide range of applications in the environmental protection industry, contributing to the development of more effective methods of pollutant removal and water quality improvement.
Perspectives
Future research prospects include further improvement of the synthesis of organic-inorganic microspheres to increase their efficiency in adsorption of various organic and inorganic pollutants. It is also possible to explore their applications in other fields, such as catalysis or chemical separation, and develop methods for their production on a larger scale. Further research can focus on optimizing the surface and structural properties of the materials to improve their durability, thermal stability, and efficiency under different operating conditions.
