The invention relates to the technical field of adsorption type materials for extracting water from air, in particular to an MOF compound adsorbent based on foamy
copper as well as a preparation method and application of the MOF compound adsorbent. Foamy
copper which is smooth in surface, provided with communicating pore channels and excellent in
heat transfer performance is selected as a substrate material, in-situ
etching is conducted on the foamy
copper in a strong alkali solution to grow a
copper hydroxide nanowire array, then the
copper hydroxide nanowire array and 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11-hexahydroxy
triphenylene are used for converting
copper hydroxide into interwoven and wound Cu3 (HHTP) 2 nanorods through a hydrothermal method, and the Cu3 (HHTP) 2 nanorods are prepared. The MOF foam composite adsorbent material with the three-dimensional porous
structure based on the foamy copper is obtained. The Pi-Pi transition of 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11-hexahydroxy
triphenylene as a ligand in Cu3 (HHTP) 2 can absorb
ultraviolet light and visible light and further convert the
ultraviolet light and visible light into
heat energy, so that the material has excellent photo-thermal conversion capacity and relatively
high heat conduction capacity and stability, and photo-thermal autonomous
desorption can be realized under the
irradiation of
sunlight when adsorption is saturated.
