Novel supramolecular organo-oil gelators for fast and effective oil trapping: Mechanism and applications.

Published in Journal of hazardous materials

In this paper, for the sorption of oil from oil polluted soil/water systems, nine new supramolecular organo-oil gelators were synthesized using three distinct diisocyanates and alcohols. The manufactured gelators were characterized using various techniques. The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and mass spectra confirmed the successful formation of...
