The invention belongs to the technical field of water purification materials, and particularly relates to a
gelatin coated TiO2-
polypyrrole composite material as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: adding the
polysorbate-80 into the paraffin oil, and stirring at 30-60 DEG C for 20-50 minutes to obtain an
oil phase; heating water to 40-60 DEG C, then adding
gelatin and the TiO2-
polypyrrole composite precursor material, and stirring for 20-50 minutes to obtain a water phase; adding the water phase into the
oil phase, and stirring for 30-60 minutes to obtain a
mixed solution; and cooling the obtained
mixed solution to 2-10 DEG C, then adding
ethanol, stirring for 15-40 minutes, then sequentially washing with
acetone and isopropanol, and freeze-
drying the obtained
solid matter, thereby obtaining the product. The
polypyrrole and the
gelatin contain functional groups such as amino groups, carboxyl groups and the like, and can form a complex with lead ions, so that the adsorption activity of the nano TiO2 material can be effectively improved, and the lead removal performance of the material is improved. The
composite material disclosed by the invention shows very good removal rate and adsorption efficiency on lead ions in water.
