Abstract

Magnetic polymers are often used as loading materials for ionic liquids because of their excellent magnetic separation properties. In this study, a novel imidazolium-based ionic liquid-modified magnetic polymer was synthesized by suspension polymerization and grafting, denoted as γ-Fe2O3@GMA@IM, and this magnetic polymer was used for the adsorption of the acid dye FCF. The magnetic polymer was characterized by SEM, FTIR, XRD, VSM and TGA. These techniques were used to reveal the overall physical properties of magnetic polymers, including the presence of morphology, functional groups, crystalline properties, magnetism and thermal stability. Studies have shown that γ-Fe2O3@GMA@IM can adsorb FCF in a wide pH range (2–10), with a maximum adsorption capacity of 445 mg/g. The adsorption data were more in line with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Freundlich isotherm. In order to investigate its reusability, this study used 10% NaCl as the desorption solution, and carried out five batches of adsorption–desorption cycles. After five cycles, the adsorption effect was maintained at 98.3%, which showed a good recycling performance.
