The Construction of Magnetic MnFe2O4@TpPa-1 Composite Materials and the Adsorption Removal Performance of Organic Pollutants in Solution

Abstract

MnFe2O4@TpPa-1 adsorbent was developed by co-precipitation and solvothermal method, using β-ketoenamine linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs, TpPa-1) as supporting material to alleviate the aggregation of MnFe2O4. The properties were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, SEM, TEM, VSM, pHpzc, and N2 adsorption-desorption. The experimental results showed that the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir model best described the adsorption process, suggesting that the adsorption process was chemisorption and spontaneous endothermic reaction, and the maximum adsorption capacity of Bisphenol A (BPA) was 926.65 mg.g-1. The main adsorption mechanism of BPA was hydrogen bonding and π-π conjugation between active functional groups in the TpPa-1 skeleton and BPA. Furthermore, the magnetic MnFe2O4@TpPa-1 showed good regeneration ability, indicating that MnFe2O4@TpPa-1 could be used in water treatment.
