This invention discloses a three-dimensional
graphene oxide composite foam material with both antibacterial and high
uranium selectivity, and its preparation method, belonging to the fields of environmental functional materials and
seawater uranium extraction technology. Using
graphene oxide (GO) as the matrix, this invention introduces superhydrophilic polyethyleneimine (PEI), highly
uranium-selective poly(amine
oxime) (PAO), and
guanidine phosphate polymer (PGdn) with both antibacterial and uranium coordination capabilities, and prepares the GO-PEI-PAO-PGdn (GPP-PGdn) composite foam material through a one-step covalent cross-linking method. The material prepared by this invention has a three-dimensional interconnected porous structure, superhydrophilic properties, and excellent uranium selectivity. The uranium
partition coefficient Kd value in natural
seawater reaches as high as 18250 mg / L, and the uranium removal rate reaches 87.65%, achieving
highly selective uranium enrichment. Simultaneously, it has significant antibacterial effects against
Escherichia coli and
Staphylococcus aureus, effectively solving the problem of
biofouling during
seawater uranium extraction. The material prepared by this invention has a mild and controllable process that can be scaled up and can be widely used in fields such as trace uranium enrichment and uranium-containing radioactive
wastewater treatment. It also has excellent adsorption performance, cycle stability and
environmental resistance.
