The structural and composition analysis of the C[6]TS was performed by FTIR, XRD, TGA, and SEM techniques. C[6]TS was used as an adsorbent for the removal of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) from aqueous solutions. Initial adsorption experiments demonstrated that C[6]TS showed outstanding performance for the removal of 4-NP. So it exhibited rapid and effective adsorption with a %83 yield within ten minutes. Subsequently, some adsorption criteria such as pH, initial concentration, contact time, sorbent dosage, and temperature were evaluated in detail. Thus, adsorption phenomena of 4-NP onto C[6]TS were clarified in this way.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessPhenol RemovalOrganic PollutantsAdsorptionCalixareneSilica SupportArticle3010419142022-s2.0-85085062843Q2WOS:000530199900002Q210.1007/s10904-020-01571-0
