Zusammenfassung:In this study, researchers developed a novel composite material called NH2-MIL-53-Al/PAN, which consists of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) grown on electrospun PAN nanofibers (NFs). The successful formation of the composite was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and the hydrophilicity of NH2-MIL-53-Al/PAN was demonstrated by the water contact angle (WCA). Batch experiments were conducted to investigate the adsorption performance of Co(II) under different conditions. The maximum adsorption capacity reached 58.72 mg/g, and almost 95% of the adsorption was achieved within the first 6 h. The adsorption process was found to be spontaneous and endothermic and followed the pseudo-second-order kinetics and Langmuir models. Chemisorption and molecular layer adsorption are the main mechanisms of adsorption, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis further reveals that the interaction between the adsorbent and cobalt is a coordination interaction. In this study, NH2-MIL-53-Al was grown in situ on PAN to ensure effective loading of MOFs and prevent agglomeration during the NF mixing process. This approach successfully addressed the challenge of exposing active sites within the embedded MOF crystals. Additionally, it overcame the difficulty of recycling traditional MOF adsorbents. As a result, the exceptional performance of MOF NFs offers a promising solution for the efficient removal of cobalt-containing wastewater
