用于染料吸附的甲基纤维素基气凝胶材料的制备及性能

针对印染废水的严重污染问题,选择刚果红(CR)和亚甲基蓝(MB)作为目标吸附物,开发了一种基于甲基纤维素(MC)和壳聚糖(CS)的复合气凝胶吸附材料(MC/CS)。考察了制备过程中MC/CS的成分配比、戊二醛浓度、交联温度及气凝胶密度等参数对甲基纤维素基气凝胶吸附材料的吸附能力和压缩强度的影响,并优化了其制备工艺。结果表明:当MC/CS质量配比为6∶4,戊二醛浓度5%,交联温度50℃时,所得气凝胶密度为10 mg/cm~3时,它对CR和MB具有优异的吸附能力,静态饱和吸附量分别达到518.12和237.86 mg/g,此时气凝胶的压缩强度达到1.57 kPa,使用后可保持形态结构完整。

Preparation and Adsorption Properties of Methylcellulose Aerogel Adsorbent for Dyes

In order to remove dyes from printing and dyeing effuent, a novel methylcellulose aerogel adsorbent based on methylcellulose (MC) and chitosan (CS) were developed. Discussion was made on the influence of ratio of methylcellulose and chitosan, concentration of glutaraldehyde, cross-linking temperature, and aerogel density on the adsorption capacity and compression strength of aerogel, with congo red (CR) and methylene blue(MB) as target object. And then the preparation process was optimized, and the results show that the adsorption capacities of aerogel based on methylcellulose for the anionic dyes CR and cationic dyes MB are as high as 518.12 and 237.86 mg/g respectively with the ratio of MC/CS of 6∶4, the glutaraldehyde concentration 5%, cross-linking temperature 50℃, and the aerogel density reach a high of 10 mg/cm3. Besides, the compression strength of aerogel is 1.57 kPa, and MC/CS can maintain the major structure after adsorption process.
