Abstract
Poly(styrene-divinylbenzene)/Fe3O4 (Fe3O4@St-DVB) magnetic porous polymer microspheres based on suspension polymerization were prepared for adsorption of 2, 4-dichlorophenol (2, 4-DCP) and 2, 6-dichlorophenol (2, 6-DCP) from aqueous solution. The as-prepared product was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, differential thermal analysis and elemental analysis. The results showed that the composite material has both porous and magnetic characteristics, which aid in faster separation and increase in adsorption capacity. The adsorption performance of the Fe3O4@(St-DVB) magnetic porous microspheres was manifested by batch mode adsorption experiments with respect to pH, initial concentration, contact time and temperature. The adsorbent was found to be sensitive to changes in pH, and the adsorption capacity of 2, 4-DCP is higher than that of 2, 6-DCP. The kinetics experimental data fitted well with the pseudo...
