The objective of this study is to obtain nanofibrous precursor based calixarene with high ion adsorption capacity by electrospinning of blended solution of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and upper rim functionalized calix[4]arene bearing N-methylglucamine (Calix-NMG). The obtained electrospun fibers were characterized using fourier transform infrared (FT-IR-ATR), scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX) and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA and DSC). Analysis indicated that preparation of nanofibers based Calix-NMG was successfully achieved. The ion binding studies exhibited that the nanofiber based Calix-NMG could be efficiently used for the binding of chromate anions and uranium cations. Nanofiber based calix[4]arene with N-methylglucamine chelating groups may be a good candidate as a filter material for treatment of a large quantity of wastewater owing to their very large surface area as well as both the inclusion and donor-acceptor complexation capability of all surfaces associated with the calixarene skeleton.
