Hollow Mesoporous Carbon Spheres with Magnetic Cores and Their Performance as Separable Bilirubin Adsorbents

Hollow mesoporous carbon spheres with magnetic cores are directly replicated from hollow mesoporous aluminosilicate spheres with hematite cores by a simple incipient‐wetness impregnation technique. The amount of magnetic cores and the saturation magnetization value can be easily tuned by changing the concentration of iron nitrate solution used in the synthesis procedure. As‐prepared hollow mesoporous carbon spheres with magnetic cores are used as separable bilirubin adsorbents and show very good adsorptive properties. The characteristics of as‐prepared composites are examined by XRD, N2sorption, TEM, vibrating‐sample magnetometry, and UV/Vis spectroscopy.
