Table 3. Freundlich and Langmuir Isotherm Parameters for Adsorption of MB onto Mg-TNTs.

isotherm parameters results parameter description
Langmuir R2 1 R2 is the regression coefficient
RL 0.985 RL value lies between 0 and 1 for favorable adsorption; RL higher than 1 means unfavorable adsorption; RL equal to 1 represents linear adsorption; RL = 0 means the adsorption process is irreversible
Qmax (mg/g) 105 Qmax is the maximum adsorption capacity of the adsorbent
KL (L/mg) 0.001511 KL is the constant of the Langmuir model
Freundlich R2 1 R2 is the regression coefficient
1/n 0.9999 Kf and n are the Freundlich constants and give an indication about the maximum adsorption capacity
KF (mg/g) 2.500 if 1/n is less than 0.5, the adsorption would be easily carried out
    if 1/n is larger than 0.5, the adsorption is difficult
