摘要

In this work, a multifunctional microporous metal-organic framework (MOF), [Cd(ABTC)(H2O)(2)(DMA)]4DMA (JLNU-4; JLNU = Jilin Normal University; H(4)ABTC = 3,3,5,5-azobenzenetetracarboxylic acid), has been synthesized based on the ligand H(4)ABTC under solvothermal conditions. JLNU-4 shows excellent uptake of iodine both in solution and in the vapor phase, owing to the existence of a microporous structure in JLNU-4. The adsorption kinetics during the process of iodine adsorption were analyzed via a series of qualitative and quantitative analyses, such as the Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. In addition, according to UV/vis spectroscopy analysis and the colour variance of JLNU-4, the relatively small sized dye methylene blue (MB) could be efficiently adsorbed by JLNU-4, through size-exclusion effects. Particularly, JLNU-4 can serve as a column-chromatographic filler for the separation of dye molecules. Therefore, JLNU-4 is a multifunctional microporous MOF for iodine adsorption and column-chromatographic dye separation.
