Enhanced Methylene Blue Adsorption by Cu-BTC Metal-Organic Frameworks with Engineered Particle Size Using Surfactant Modulators

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) featuring porous structures and large specific surface areas have shown great potential in removing organic pollutants from wastewater via adsorption processes. Although the particle size of MOFs determines the adsorption performance (something known as the size-dependent effect), engineering it into desirable dimensions for enhancing the adsorption performance is a great challenge. Here, we develop a practical and facile approach to regulate the particle size of copper benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate (Cu-BTC) adsorbents with high tunability by screening the functional modulator of various surfactants adding in hydrothermal synthesis procedure. The effect of surfactant type and concentration on the particle size of Cu-BTC was systematically investigated. The results show that the nonionic surfactant polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) demonstrated the greatest ability to control the particle size of Cu-BTC among other counterparts (e.g., N, N, N-trimethyl-1-dodecanaminium bromide (DTAB), polyethylene glycol (PEG1000), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) and hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB)). By increasing the PVP concentration to 0.14 mmol L-1, the average particle size of Cu-BTC could be correspondingly reduced by more than ten times, reaching to a comparative smaller value of 2.4 mu m as compared with the reported counterparts. In addition, the PVP allowed a large increase of the surface area of Cu-BTC according to porosity analysis, resulting in a great enhancement of methylene blue (MB) adsorption. The PVP-modulated Cu-BTC showed fast adsorption kinetics for MB removal accompanied with a maximum adsorption capacity of 169.2 mg g(-1), which was considerably competitive with most of the analogs reported. Therefore, our study may inspire concepts for engineering the particle size of Cu-BTCs with improved properties for more practical applications.
