摘要
An amidoxime-based ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene(UHMWPE)fibrous adsorbent was successfully prepared by γ-irradiation-induced graft copolymerization of acrylonitrile(AN)and acrylic acid(AA),followed by amidoximation.The grafting of AN and AA on the UHMWPE fiber and the amidoximation of the grafted fiber were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,scanning electron microscopy,and thermogravimetric analysis.The mechanical property of the original and modified UHMWPE fibers was compared by single-filament strength test.The adsorption property of the UHMWPE fibrous adsorbent was evaluated by adsorption test in uranyl nitrate solution and seawater.The surface of the modified UHMWPE fibers was covered by the grafting layer and became rough.The tensile strength of the amidoxime-based UHMWPE fibrous adsorbent was influenced by the absorbed dose and hydrochloric acid elution,but was independent of the grafting yield and amidoximation.The uranium adsorption amount of the amidoxime-based UHMWPE fibrous adsorbent after immersing in seawater for 42 days was 2.3 mg-U/g.
An amidoxime-based ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene （UHMWPE） fibrous adsorbent was successfully prepared by T-irradiation-induced graft copolymerization of acrylonitrile （AN） and acrylic acid （AA）, followed by amidoximation. The grafting of AN and AA on the UHMWPE fiber and the amidoximation of the grafted fiber were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The mechanical property of the original and modified UHMWPE fibers was compared by single-filament strength test. The adsorption property of the UHMWPE fibrous adsorbent was evaluated by adsorption test in uranyl nitrate solution and seawater. The surface of the modified UHMWPE fibers was covered by the grafting layer and became rough.
