The natural adsorption material montmorillonite (MMT) was selected, and cellulose acetate (CA) was used as the loading substrate to design and prepare a kind of green and environment-friendly recyclable porous composite fiber membrane with good heavy metal ion adsorption performance. Acetic acid modified montmorillonite (HCl-MMT), sodium dodecyl sulfonate modified montmorillonite (SDS-MMT), and chitosan modified montmorillonite (CTS-MMT) were prepared by inorganic modification and organic modification, and the porous MMT/CA composite fiber membrane was constructed by centrifugal spinning equipment. The morphological and structural changes of MMT before and after modification and their effects on porous composite fiber membranes were investigated. The morphology, structure, and adsorption properties of the composite fibers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic absorption spectrometry (ASS). The experimental results showed that the maximum adsorption capacity of Cu2+ on the prepared 5 wt% CTS-MMT composite fiber membrane was 60.272 mg/g after 10 h static adsorption. The adsorption of Cu2+ by a porous composite fiber membrane conforms to the quasi-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isothermal adsorption model. The main factor of the Cu2+ adsorption rate is chemical adsorption, and the adsorption mechanism is mainly monolayer adsorption.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
