A novel tri-isopropanolamine functionalized graphene oxide (TI-GO) adsorbent was synthesized by one-step reaction at 358K. Then the prepared TI-GO was characterized by SEM-EDS, FTIR, Raman spectra, TG, BET and XPS. The characterization results indicated the TI-GO has been synthesized successfully and it interact with Pb(II) ions through its nitrogen and oxygen-containing functional groups. Batch adsorption experiments were applied to evaluate the optimized conditions of adsorption. The results indicated that the TI-GO can reach equilibrium adsorption in 30 min and get maximum adsorption capacity at 293 K, pH 5.0. Besides, the adsorption kinetic and adsorption isotherm research indicated that the adsorption of TI-GO fit pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetic and Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. In addition, the maximum adsorption capacity evaluated by Langmuir adsorption isotherm equation is 1478 mg/g.

Poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) modified with a new supramolecular macrocycle, carboxylatopillar[5]arene, was successfully prepared inside a capillary. The functionalized polymer monolith material was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and Fourier-transformed infrared spectra. The experimental results showed that this type of polymer possess a good network skeleton structure and excellent extraction properties for the enrichment of parabens by polymer monolith solid-phase microextraction coupled with high performance liquid chromatography. Compared with other pre-treatment methods, the simple operation and inexpensive instrumentation characteristics of the developed polymer monolith SPME method make it more suitable for the extraction of parabens in red wine samples with great potential for further broadening its applications in the enrichment of other real samples.

A novel approach to synthesize phytic acid (PA) functionalized graphene oxide (P-pFGO-7) treated by the photo-Fenton reaction has been designed, which has been used as an adsorbent for efficient capture of U(VI) from aqueous solution. The structure and morphology of P-pFGO-7 were characterized well. The adsorption property for P-pFGO-7 was comprehensively assessed by batch experiments, showing the high adsorption capacity (266.7 mg/g, at pH = 4.0, T = 298 K), fast adsorption kinetics (~10 min), good selectivity for U(VI) and Ln-An ions in various coexisting ions and excellent regeneration capacity. With the assistance of various characterization techniques and batch adsorption results, it is found that PA makes the most contribution to coordinate U(VI) heavily depending on the P O moiety. P-pFGO-7 could be regenerated by 0.1 mol/L Na 2 CO 3 with ~95% desorption efficiency and reused well after five recycles. This present work provides a feasible route to modify graphene oxide and extend PA for potentially practical application in the removal of U(VI) from radioactive wastewater .
