| Abstract | A unique porous tin dioxide (SnO2) sheet, which simultaneously possesses a porous exterior composed of nanoparticles and a hierarchical interior composed of nanoflakes, was reported for the first time. It was prepared via a facile solvothermal route combined with an annealing process. The as-prepared hierarchically-packed nanostructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electronic microscopy (FESEM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The elemental mapping and the line scans were also performed in the high-angle annular dark-field (HAADF) mode on the same HRTEM. The novel SnO2 nanostructures were further employed to adsorb methylene blue which was used as the probe of organic pollutants in aqueous solution. The results show that the hierarchically-packed SnO2 sheets exhibit a fast adsorption rate to the absorbate. The removal efficiency reaches 98.5% in 5 min, which is significantly faster than that of commercial active carbon and some traditional nanostructures. As for the mechanism for such a fascinating adsorbing performance, a special adsorbate-depleted region formed inside the sheet is proposed, which is also supported by the study of the kinetic processes of gas adsorption and desorption. Moreover, the influence of pH, maximum adsorption capacity, and recyclability of the SnO2 sheets are also investigated. Our findings indicate that the novel hierarchically-packed SnO2 nanostructures could be a promising absorbent applied for rapid removal of organic pollutants in water. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
