Popis: | Electrospun nanofiber composite membranes containing water-stable metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) particles (Zr-based MOF-808) supported on polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofiber synthesized via co-electrospinning have been prepared. MOF particles were dispersed in the organic polymer, and their subsequent presence was inferred by scanning electron microscopy. Membrane performance in heavy metal ion adsorption in batch filtration was evaluated on the basis of Cd2+ and Zn2+ ions sequestration. The adsorption capacities of the pristine MOF and the MOF composite membrane revealed that MOF particles in the membrane could be accessed for adsorption in the hydrophilic PAN membranes. The maximum adsorption capacities were 225.05 and 287.06 mg g–1 for Cd2+ and Zn2+, respectively. Conventional thermal activation of pristine MOF and composite membrane revealed a crystal downsizing, while “hydractivation” produced an expanded MOF with enhanced adsorption potentials. The PAN/MOF-808 “hydractivated” composite membrane coul... |
