Abstract

Herein, the Zr-MOF UiO-66-NH2 was synthesized in a facile method. When the as-synthesized UiO-66-NH2 is served as an adsorbent for 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (PA), styphnic acid (TNR), 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP), 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), and 2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT) in water, the absorption capacities are 0.0225, 0.024, 0.0296, 0.0005, and 0.002g/g, respectively. This suggests that UiO-66-NH2 is an excellent adsorbent for PA, TNR, and 2,4-DNP and is promising material for the removal of PA, TNR, and 2,4-DNP from wastewater. The excellent adsorption performance is attributed to the hydrogen-bond interactions between UiO-66-NH2 and these explosives.
