Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of materials technology, and in particular relates to a chitosan-polyacrylonitrile composite material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] The continued development of the manufacturing industry has significantly exacerbated the discharge of organic waste into aquatic ecosystems, thus worsening water pollution problems. Even at trace concentrations, organic pollutants pose a serious threat to the recycling and sustainable development of water resources. Phenolic compounds, as a typical class of persistent organic pollutants, are widely used in industrial production processes such as plastics, dyes, and pesticides, and possess strong resistance to degradation due to the stability of their chemical structures. Once these compounds enter the environment, they readily accumulate in the food chain, posing potential risks to ecosystems and human health.

[0003] Besides organic pollutants, heavy metals (such as lead, chromium, and mercury) are also among the most significant pollutants in wastewater. The presence of these toxic metals not only significantly degrades the quality of groundwater and surface water but also poses a serious threat to aquatic ecosystems and terrestrial organisms. Furthermore, long-term exposure to heavy metals can cause irreversible damage to vital human organs (such as the liver, kidneys, brain, and nervous system), and may even be carcinogenic or cause acute poisoning under high concentration conditions.

[0004] Among numerous water pollution control technologies, adsorption is widely considered one of the most promising pollutant removal technologies due to its simple operation, low energy consumption, recyclability, and high treatment efficiency. Currently, various highly efficient adsorption materials have been developed for removing organic pollutants and heavy metals from wastewater. However, despite these materials' progress in pollutant removal, they still face the problem of low selectivity, making it difficult to efficiently separate phenolic pollutants and heavy metal ions. Therefore, developing adsorption materials with higher selectivity, larger adsorption capacity, and better regeneration performance remains a core challenge in the field of water pollution control. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a chitosan-polyacrylonitrile composite material, which aims to solve the problem that existing high-efficiency adsorption materials have low selectivity and are difficult to efficiently separate phenolic pollutants and heavy metal ions.

[0010] Modified chitosan was added to the first mixture and stirred to react. After filtration and washing, a second mixture was obtained.

[0011] The second mixture was placed in an acid solution and stirred. After filtration, the resulting solid was placed in a sodium carbonate solution and stirred. After filtration, washing, and drying, chitosan-polyacrylonitrile composite material was obtained.

[0012] This application also provides an application of the above-mentioned chitosan-polyacrylonitrile composite material in the adsorption of organic pollutants and heavy metal ions.

[0013] This application successfully developed a novel chitosan-polyacrylonitrile composite material using inexpensive chitosan and polyacrylonitrile fibers as raw materials. This material overcomes the solubility limitations of chitosan under acidic conditions and simultaneously enhances its adsorption capacity for phenolic compounds and heavy metals. Compared to chitosan, this chitosan-polyacrylonitrile composite material has a more compact internal structure, mainly due to the structural confinement effect of polyacrylonitrile. This structural modification endows the chitosan-polyacrylonitrile composite material with higher selectivity for target pollutants, especially among eight different phenolic compounds (phenol, 4-methylphenol, 4-chlorophenol, 4-nitrophenol, hydroquinone, catechol, resorcinol, and phloroglucinol). Hydroquinone exhibits superior adsorption performance, with an adsorption capacity as high as 316.84 mg·g⁻¹. -1 Furthermore, this chitosan-polyacrylonitrile composite material is effective against soft metal ions such as Hg. 2+ Its adsorption capacity is also outstanding, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 237.18 mg·g⁻¹. -1 .

[0018]

This material not only combines the high adsorption performance of chitosan and the acid resistance of polyacrylonitrile fibers, but also significantly improves the structural stability and pollutant selectivity of the material.

[0020] Chitosan, a natural polymer derived from chitin, has attracted considerable attention in environmental protection and industrial applications due to its excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability, efficient adsorption performance, and promising functionalization potential. However, the application of chitosan is limited under certain environmental conditions, especially in weakly acidic solutions where it is prone to acid degradation and gelation. This reduces its dispersibility in aqueous solutions and affects its ability to complex metal ions through hydroxyl and amino groups, thus limiting its adsorption performance.

Studies have shown that functionalized PANF exhibits high selective adsorption capacity for specific pollutants in water pollution control, providing important scientific evidence for its precise application in wastewater treatment. Therefore, by rationally designing functionalized PANF and optimizing its interaction mechanism with pollutants, its application value in the field of water pollution control is expected to be further enhanced.

Unless otherwise specified, the experimental methods used in the following examples are conventional methods; the materials and reagents used are commercially available unless otherwise specified.

[0042] Example 1: Preparation of chitosan-polyacrylonitrile composite material

[0043] Chitosan (CS, 0.75 g) with a degree of deacetylation of 93.4% was dissolved in a 2 wt% acetic acid solution and placed in a 100 mL round-bottom flask. Then, methanol (70.0 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred with a magnetic stirrer until homogeneous. Next, benzaldehyde (2.00 g) was diluted in methanol (30.0 mL), and this solution was slowly added dropwise to the chitosan-methanol solution. The mixture was heated to 60 °C and reacted for 3 hours. After the reaction was complete, 5% sodium hydroxide solution was slowly added until no more white precipitate formed. The mixture was then stirred for another 30 minutes, filtered, and the solid was washed alternately with water and methanol. Finally, the solid was dried at 60 °C to obtain a white solid BCS (0.98 g).

[0044] BCS (0.76 g) was swollen in 1% sodium hydroxide solution (10.0 mL) for 1 hour. Then, p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (2.90 g) dissolved in chloroform (50.0 mL) was slowly added dropwise to the swollen BCS solution at 0 °C, and the reaction was stirred at this temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was then transferred to 30 °C, and the reaction was continued with stirring for 10 hours. After the reaction was complete, the solid was filtered and washed with ethanol, and finally dried at 60 °C to give a white solid BTCS (0.70 g).

[0045] BTCS (0.62 g), sodium azide (0.30 g), and N,N-dimethylformamide (30.0 mL) were added to a round-bottom flask equipped with a reflux condenser, and the mixture was stirred at 80 °C for 4 hours. After the reaction was complete, the mixture was filtered and the solid was washed with water and ethanol. Finally, the solid was dried at 60 °C to obtain a pale yellow solid, BNCS (0.48 g).

[0046] Dry PANF (1.00 g), propargylamine (10.0 mL), and deionized water (30.0 mL) were added to a round-bottom flask. The mixture was stirred and reacted under boiling reflux for 24 hours. After the reaction was complete, the fibers were removed, washed repeatedly with ethanol, and then dried in an oven at 60°C for at least 8 hours to obtain orange PAN fibers. P F.

[0047] PAN PF (1.00 g) was dissolved in 50.0 mL of N-methylpyrrolidone at 130 °C. After the solution was cooled to room temperature (25 °C), CuSO4·5H2O (0.32 g) dissolved in 1.0 mL of water and L-sodium ascorbate (0.52 g) were added and stirred until homogeneous. Subsequently, BNCS (0.67 g) was added, and stirring was continued at 30 °C for 24 hours. After the reaction was complete, the mixture was poured into 100.0 mL of water, filtered, and the solid was washed with water and ethanol to obtain a brown powder, PAN-BCS. Next, PAN-BCS was placed in 40.0 mL of 2.0 M HCl solution and stirred at 40 °C for 4 hours, then filtered. Subsequently, the solid was placed in 40.0 mL of 1.0 M Na2CO3 solution and stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The solid was filtered, washed with water and ethanol, and finally dried at 60°C to obtain a brown powder of chitosan-polyacrylonitrile composite material PAN-CS (1.39 g).

[0048] TEM tests were performed on the chitosan CS and the chitosan-polyacrylonitrile composite material PAN-CS in Example 1, and the test results are as follows: Figure 1 As shown, where, Figure 1 (a)-(c) are TEM images of PAN-CS. Figure 1 (d)-(f) are TEM images of the CS. From Figure 1 As can be seen, PAN-CS particles are more densely packed than CS particles. This phenomenon can be attributed to the regioconstriction effect exerted by the modified polyacrylonitrile polymer segments on the chitosan molecular segments during the reaction process. This effect promotes a more compact arrangement of polymer segments, resulting in a more compact structure.

[0049] Furthermore, regarding CS, BCS, BTCS, BNCS, PANF, and PAN in Example 1... P Infrared spectroscopy tests were performed on F, PAN-BCS, and PAN-CS respectively. The test results are as follows: Figure 2 As shown. From Figure 2 From this, we can see that at 1639cm -1 At 755 cm⁻¹, the BCS shows an absorption peak for the stretching vibration of the C=N bond. -1 and 690cm -1 The characteristic absorption peak of the monosubstituted benzene ring appeared at 818 cm⁻¹, indicating the successful formation of the imine bond. -1 The absorption peak at the para-benzene ring bending vibration at 2106 cm⁻¹ confirmed the introduction of the p-toluenesulfonyl group. In the BNCS spectrum, the peak at 2106 cm⁻¹... -1 The stretching vibration absorption peak at 2244 cm⁻¹ indicates the successful introduction of the azide group. In the PANF spectrum, the peak at 2244 cm⁻¹... -1 There is an absorption peak at the stretching vibration of the C≡N bond. PAN PF shows 1660cm -1 The absorption peak of the C=O stretching vibration at that point is observed in the PAN-BCS spectrum. p The characteristic peak of F (C≡N, 2244 cm⁻¹) -1 It also has the characteristic peak of BNCS (-OH, 3500 cm⁻¹). -1 Aromatic ring, 755cm -1 and 690cm -1 After hydrolysis of the imine, the bending vibration absorption peak of the monosubstituted benzene ring disappears in the PAN-CS spectrum.
