 note = {Water-insoluble gel was prepared from persimmon tannin (PT) solution by the autoxidation process. The gelation reaction proceeded by applying oxygen gas and natural light to the aqueous PT solution, without using harmful reagents or catalysts. Adsorption behavior of the PT gel was assessed using caffeine. Batch adsorption studies were conducted to evaluate the influence of experimental parameters such as contact time, initial concentration of adsorbates, adsorbent dose and temperature. The equilibrium data were analyzed using Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models. Thermodynamic parameters such as Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, and entropy changes were also calculated, showing that caffeine adsorption on the PT gel is an exothermic process and feasible at lower temperatures. The present results suggest that the PT gel can be used as an effective adsorbent for removing caffeine from solutions., 出版者照会後に全文公開, 金沢大学理工研究域物質化学系},
