        Nitroaphenol compounds and toxic dyes are considered to be the main pollutants of wastewater of various industries. These synthetic organic compounds are very toxic and one of the most persistent pollutants in the environment. Developing a simple and effective method to remove non-degradable pollutants into non-hazardous products is one of the main challenges in environmental studies. In this research, adsorption capacity removal of 4-nitrophenol (4NP) from aqueous solutions using carbon nanofibers (CNF) was investigated in a batch system by considering the effects of various parameters like contact time, adsorbent dosage, pH and initial concentration. Optimum conditions for (4NP) adsorption were found to be initial pH≈2 , carbon nanofiber (CNF) dose≈ 0.02 g and equilibrium time≈ 80 min. Results show that removal efficiency of the 4NP increased by increasing 4NP concentration and decreased by increasing the CNFs dosage and pH. Based on correlation coefficients, Langmuir gave the best fit for 4NP adsorption onto CNF. Also, the kinetic studies indicate the adsorption of 4NP onto CNF is followed a pseudo- second order kinetic. Manuscript profile

        In polymer-based nanocomposites, carbon nanofibers have been used to improve mechanical properties in various applications. In this research, the tensile properties of carbon nanofibers have been used to create carbon-epoxy nanocomposite and improve the mechanical properties of epoxy nanocomposite, and the effect of the weight percentage of carbon nanofibers on the mechanical properties of epoxy nanocomposite has been investigated. Epoxy with weight percentages of 1.0, 5.0 and 1.5 carbon nanofibers were produced and their mechanical properties were investigated. The results showed that the use of even a small percentage of carbon nanofibers can lead to the improvement of mechanical properties. Manuscript profile
