摘要

Developing high-performance adsorbents for radioactive iodine capture is urgent for nuclear wastewater disposal. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown great potential for iodine capture owing to their fascinating physical and chemical properties. Herein, Zn-MOFs (ZIF-96_LX) with different porosities and excellent thermal stability were synthesized using a solvothermal method. The porosity and morphology of ZIF-96_LX could be easily tuned by controlling the molar ratio of metal ions to ligands. The as-synthesized ZIF-96_L5 exhibited a maximal iodine uptake of 4.23 g/g, higher than that of other Zn-MOFs. Furthermore, a plausible mechanism of the improved iodine adsorption capability of the ZIF-96_LX adsorbents is proposed based on experimental characterizations and theoretical calculations.
