Alhamdulillah. Our paper has been accepted in Journal of Industrial and Enginering Chemistry, Elsevier with impact factor 4.31.
I am feeling joy over the moon that the paper has finally been accepted in high impact factor journal..congrats to my student Faten Ermala who is the first author of this paper
‘This paper described PAN-based ACNFs incorporated with MgO was prepared by electrospinning process followed by appropriate activation process. The addition of MgO caused physicochemical changes in term of smaller fiber diameter with an average diameter of 520 nm and higher surface area which is up to four times (1893 m2 g−1) as compared to pristine ACNFs (478 m2 g−1). Moreover, the modified ACNFs possessed a better adsorption capacity with higher CH4 adsorption of 2.37 mmol g−1. From the experimental data, the adsorption of CH4 by composite ACNFs obeyed the pseudo-second order kinetic model with R2 value up to 0.9996 and best fitted by Freundlich isotherm model.
