摘要

The effect of cationic template on the adsorption of copper-phthalocyanine-3,4',4",4'"-tetrasulfonic acid tetra-sodium salt [Cu(tsPc)-4·4Na+] in MCM-41 and MCM-48 mesoporous materials was investigated,using cetyl-trimethylammonium bromide(CTAB)as the cationic template and tetraethyl-orthosilicate as the silica source for synthesis of mesoporous materials.The properties of synthesized samples were characterized with XRD-Iow angle and scanning electron microscopy.The as-synthesized mesoporous samples were used for the separation of Cu(tsPc)tion speed,contact time,composition of adsorbents(presence or absence of surfactants)and initial analyte concen-trations.Adsorption uptakes were rapid on the adsorbents reaching equilibrium in 1/5 h for MCM-48 and 2 h for MCM-41.The materials showed excellent adsorption capacity toward copper-phthalocyanine anion(300.5 mg/g of Cu(tsPc)-4 for as-MCM48 and 285.5 mg/g for as-MCM-41).The materials without surfactant did not show signifi-cant affinity for analyte.Dominant sorption mechanisms were interactions including electrostatic,hydrophobicity,hydrogen bonding and π-π interactions.
