ABSTRAK
Kobalt sulfida telah dihasilkan dengan kaedah pemendakan kimia di dalam kehadiran 0.1% ester sukrosa S1670s. Corak pembelauan sinar-x (XRD) menunjukkan kobalt sulfida yang dihasilkan mempunyai sifat amofos dan analisis sinar-x (EDX) menunjukkan kobalt sulfida yang terbentuk mempunyai nisbah atom Co: S dalam 1:1.08 iaitu CoS. CoS yang terbentuk mempunyai struktur liang bersaiz nano (~10 nm) apabila diperhatikan di bawah elektron mikroskop transmisi (TEM) dan disahkan oleh ujian penjerapan gas nitrogen (BET). Pembentukan struktur liang adalah disebabkan oleh struktur misel ester sukrosa yang mempunyai saiz misel dalam lingkungan 10 nm. CoS yang dihasilkan diuji keupayaan penjerapan dengan metilena biru sebagai sampel pewarna. Didapati keupayaan penjerapan optimum CoS ialah 110 mg/g dan pH yang paling sesuai untuk penjerapan berlaku adalah lebih daripada 6.

ABSTRACT
Cobalt
sulfide has been successfully formed using chemical precipitation method in the
presence of 0.1% sucrose ester S1670s. X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of cobalt sulfide formed shows amorphous structure and EDX analysis shows atomic ratio
for Co:S is 1:1.08 which is
an evident of formation of CoS. Under the
transmission electron microscope (TEM), CoS showed
pores structure in the range of ~ 10 nm and the result is in agreement with the BET results. The formation of
pores structure in the CoS material is due to the
structure of sucrose ester micelle which has diameter of ~ 10 nm. Adsorption
ability of CoS formed was tested using methylene blue as model dyes. The optimum absorption
ability for CoS is 110mg/g while the most suitable pH
for adsorption was greater than 6.
