Adsorption is a promising technique with significant potential for water purification. In this context, the present study examines the adsorption efficiency of poly(6-(ethoxybenzothiazole acrylamide) (PEBTA) in removing high-valent metal ions from aqueous environments, such as Th(IV), As(V), and Hg(II). Structural and chemical characterization of PEBTA is carried out by FT-IR, H-NMR, C-NMR, TGA, SEM, and EDAX.

These reinforcements hold significant potential to enhance functional properties while substantially reducing weight. However, despite their promising role in material design, the underlying mechanisms behind their exceptional behaviour remain insufficiently understood.
