Abstract
As a water pollutant with excellent solubility, 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (also known as picric acid, PA) poses a potential threat to the natural environment and human health, so it is crucial important to detect PA in water. In this study, a novel composite material (MIL-53(Al)@R6G) was successfully synthesized by encapsulating Rhodamine 6G into a metal-organic frame material, which was used for fluorescence detection of picric acid (PA) in water. The composite exhibits bright yellow fluorescence emission with a fluorescence quantum yield of 58.23 %. In the process of PA detection, the composite has excellent selectivity and anti-interference performance, and PA can significantly quench the fluorescence intensity of MIL-53(Al)@R6G. MIL-53(Al)@R6G has the advantages of fast detection time (20 s), wide linear range (1–100 µM) and low detection limit (4.8 nM). In addition, MIL-53(Al)@R6G has demonstrated its potential for the detection of PA in environmental water samples with satisfactory results.
