“…Table 4 compared the maximum elimination capacity of U(VI) onto other adsorbents reported in previous studies [ 20 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 ]. It could be seen that ZIF-67-PU possessed a lower elimination capacity in comparison to other MOF adsorbents, i.e., HAP/ZIF-67 [ 22 ], BZCA-ZIF-8 [ 52 ], Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8 [ 53 ], and PAN@ZIF-8 [ 54 ], which can be ascribed to the limited amounts of ZIF-67 nanoparticles on the PU surface, since the functional groups of MOF materials played a dominant role in improving the elimination capacity. Moreover, the surface area also has an important influence on adsorption performance.…”
