TiO2/Bis[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]amine (BTMSPA) hybrid particles with a coral morphology were prepared using a facile method and used for the removal of methyl orange (MO) dye from wastewater. The structure of the TiO2/BTMSPA particles and the adsorption mechanism for MO were analyzed. Meanwhile, the adsorption isotherms and kinetics of MO on the particles were also studied. During the preparation of the TiO2/BTMSPA hybrid adsorbent, some of the BTMSPA linked the TiO2 particles to form a skeleton, while the remaining BTMSPA grew in situ on the TiO2 surface into nanopapillae, forming a micro/nano-porous coral-like structure. The secondary amine group in BTMSPA acted as an adsorbent via a single molecular layer chemisorption mechanism. In a neutral environment, the decolorization rate of MO was 83.3% after 1 min, eventually reaching 91.2 %. The maximum adsorption capacity was determined to be 90.3 and 369.3 mg/g under neutral and acidic conditions, respectively. Furthermore, the hybrid particles also showed excellent performance for the removal of other anionic dyes and such as methyl blue and amaranth red, with a 100 % decolorization rate. The adsorbent had good universality and excellent regeneration performance after an alkaline washing step.

珊瑚状二氧化钛/有机硅烷杂化颗粒快速吸附甲基橙
使用简便的方法制备了具有珊瑚形态的TiO 2 /双[3-(三甲氧基甲硅烷基)丙基]胺 (BTMSPA) 杂化颗粒,并将其用于去除废水中的甲基橙 (MO) 染料。分析了TiO 2 /BTMSPA颗粒的结构和对MO的吸附机理。同时,还研究了MO在颗粒上的吸附等温线和动力学。在TiO 2 /BTMSPA杂化吸附剂的制备过程中,部分BTMSPA与TiO 2颗粒连接形成骨架,而剩余的BTMSPA在TiO 2上原位生长表面进入纳米乳头,形成微/纳米多孔珊瑚状结构。BTMSPA 中的仲胺基团通过单分子层化学吸附机制充当吸附剂。在中性环境下,1 min后MO的脱色率为83.3%,最终达到91.2%。在中性和酸性条件下,最大吸附容量分别为 90.3 和 369.3 mg/g。此外,杂化颗粒还表现出优异的去除其他阴离子染料的性能,如甲基蓝和苋菜红,脱色率为100%。该吸附剂具有良好的通用性,碱洗后再生性能优异。
