Construction of MoS2-PVA-SA ternary biomimetic composite sponge and its application for efficient removal of Pb(II) ions from water

Key Points

• Efficient removal of Pb(II) ions from water was achieved using a moS2-PVA-SA composite sponge.
• The sponge demonstrated an adsorption capacity of 150 mg/g for lead ions under optimal conditions.
• Analysis of the composite sponge's performance utilized various analytical techniques to measure lead ion concentration.
• This method highlights a potential solution for water contamination, warranting further investigation into real-world applications.
