Abstract:

By employing the H6P2Mo18O62, terephthalic acid(H2BDC), 4,4'-bipyridine(Bipy) to assemble with Zn2+ ion, a three-dimensional(3D) metal organic framework composite, named H6P2Mo18O62/Zn(BDC)(Bipy)0.5, was synthesized. The composition, structure, morphology, stability and toleration of H6P2Mo18O62/Zn(BDC)(Bipy)0.5 were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction pattern(XRD), Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectrum, scanning electron microscopy(SEM), thermogravimetric(TG) analysis and N2 adsorption-desorption analysis. The adsorption of methylene blue(MB) onto H6P2Mo18O62/Zn(BDC)(Bipy)0.5 in aqueous solution was studied. The effects of the experimental parameters including the temperature, the initial pH value and initial concentration of methylene blue solution were discussed. The experimental data could be well described by the Langmuir equations and pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The adsorption process of methylene blue on the composite was spontaneous and exothermic. Furthermore, we also explored the adsorption properties of H6P2Mo18O62/Zn(BDC)(Bipy)0.5 to methyl violet, malachite green, rhodamine B, and methyl orange. The results indicated that this new absorbent showed better adsorption performance towards cationic dyes.
