abstract = "Oxidized cotton linters, TOCell, were used as an adsorbent or derived membrane there from by linters
cross-linking with citric acid. The adsorption/desorption study of Pb2+, methylene blue (MB), and crystal
violet (CV) removal, was performed. Adsorption data fitting, obtained using the Langmuir model, gave
116 mg g 1 (Pb2+), 179 mg g 1 (MB) and 482 mg g 1 (CV) at 25 ℃ for TOCell linters, while 101 mg g 1
(Pb2+), 165 mg g 1 (MB) and 426 mg g 1 (CV) for TOCell membrane. After desorption dyes were subjected
to photocatalytic degradation while lead was transformed into stable lead phthalate (LP), and further
used as filler in composites based on unsaturated polyester resins (UPR). UPR was synthesized from
waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Structural characterization was performed using FTIR, SEM,
and NMR methods. Composites loaded with acryloyl modified kraft lignin (A-KfL) and/or LP was tested
for tensile strength, Vickers microhardness, and fire resistance (UL-94 V method). The best mechanical
and fireproofing properties were obtained at 15 wt.% A-KfL and 40 wt.% Al(OH)3 addition. The results
of the toxicity leaching test (TCLP) confirmed the environmentally safe stabilization of desorbed pollutant
in the UPR matrix. Application of environmentally friendly membranes, susceptible to easy biodegradation, had low negative effects to the environment.",
