聚丙烯酸/氧化石墨烯复合水凝胶制备及对亚甲基蓝吸附

Synthesis of Poly(acrylic acid)/Graphene Oxide Composite Hydrogels and Their Adsorption Properties for Methylene Blue Dye

以丙烯酸（AA）为原料,二丙烯酸酯（Pul DA）分散的氧化石墨烯（GO）纳米胶粒（GO-Pul DA）为增强剂,N,N＇-亚甲基双丙烯酰胺（BIS）为交联剂,通过自由基共聚合制备了一系列结构均一的聚丙烯酸/氧化石墨烯复合水凝胶（PAA/GO-Pul DA）。考察了BIS质量浓度、GO质量浓度以及溶液pH值对复合水凝胶力学性能、吸水性和亚甲基蓝（MB）吸附量的影响。结果表明,当GO质量浓度从0.1 g/L增加至1.0 g/L时,复合水凝胶拉伸强度从5.0 k Pa增加至10.4 k Pa,断裂伸长率高于100%,当GO的质量浓度为0.3 g/L时,复合水凝胶的断裂伸长率最高为151%;复合水凝胶表现出pH敏感的高吸湿性,pH从3.0增加至6.8时,平衡溶胀比（SRe）变化可达386 g/g,pH=6.8时最大SRe高达490 g/g。当溶液pH值从3.0增加至11.0时,PAA/GO-Pul D对MB的平衡吸附量（qe）可增加1 400~1 500 mg/g,pH=11.0时最大的qe高达1 789 mg/g。复合水凝胶对MB的吸附行为符合准一级动力学模型。5次吸附-解吸附循环后,相对于首次吸附,PAA/GO-Pul D对MB的吸附能力仍保持高达60%,解吸附效率高于90%。

A series of poly （ acrylic acid ）/graphene oxide （ GO ） composite hydrogels （ PAA/GO- PulDA） with homogeneous structure were synthesized by free radical copolymerization using acrylic acid （AA） as a raw material, Pluronic F127 diacrylate （PulDa） dispersed graphene oxide nano micelle （GO-PulDA） as an enhancer, and N, N＇-methylenebisacrylamide （BIS） as a cross-linker. The effects of corss-linker content, GO content and pH value of solution on the mechanical properties, hydroscopicity of composite hydrogels and their adsorption capacities for methylene blue （MB） were investigated. The results showed that when the GO mass concentration increased from 0. 1 g/L to 1.0 g/L,the tensile strength of composite hydrogels increased from 5.0 kPa to 10.4 kPa,the elongation at break was greater than 100 %, and the elongation at break of composite hydrogel containing 0. 3 g/L GO reached 151%. In addition, the composite hydrogels exhibited pH-sensitive property and high hygroscopicity. The increment of swelling ratio （SRe ） of composite hydrogels was 386 g/g with increasing the solution pH from 3.0 to 6. 8. The maximum swelling ratio was 490 g/g in pH 6. 8 solution. Moreover, the increase of adsorption capacity （qe） of composite hydrogels for methylene blue was 1 400 - 1 500 mg/g with increasing the solution pH from 3.0 to 11.0. The maximum adsorption capacity was up to 1789 mg/g in pH 11.0 solution. The adsorption behavior of composite hydrogels for MB followed a pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The adsorption capacity for MB retained more than 60 % and the desorption efficiency was higher than 90 % after five adsorption-desorption cycles.
