摘要

A hydrophilic hyper-cross-linked polymer resin NDA-150 was developed to remove 1-naphthol from the contaminated waters. The sorption performance of 1-naphthol on NDA-150 was explored and compared with that on the commercial hydrophobic resin XAD-4. The sorption rates of I-naphthol onto both of the two resins obey the pseudo-second-order kinetics, and are limited by the successive steps of film diffusion and intraparticle diffusion. The greater sorption rate on XAD-4 than NDA-150 is probably due to the larger average pore diameter of XAD-4. All the adsorption isotherms can be represented by Langmuir equation. The larger capacity and stronger affinity of NDA-150 than XAD-4 probably result from the abundant microporous structure and polar groups of NDA-150. In aqueous phase hydrophobic XAD-4 adsorbs 1-naphthol driven principally by enthalpy change, while the adsorption onto hydrophilic NDA-150 driven mainly by entropy change. The breakthrough and the total sorption capacity of NDA-150 to 1-naphthol were obtained to be 1.10 and 1.58 mmol mL(-1) resin at 293 K, respectively. Nearly 100% regeneration efficiency for the resin was achieved by ethanol at 313 K.
