Abstract

The unique properties of cesium compounds have garnered increasing attention, among which Cs2Ti6O13 shows great potential for applications. This paper synthesized Cs2Ti6O13(CTO-3) using a template-assisted solvothermal method with cesium carbonate as the cesium source and tetrabutyl titanate as the titanium source. Among them, F127 and hexadecylamine are used as template agents to modulate the surface morphology and hydrophilicity of the precursor. The cesium ion sieve H2Ti6O13 (HTO-3) synthesized after hydrochloric acid pickling has a large specific surface area and good hydrophilicity. This structure is conducive to the ion exchange between Cs+ and H+, resulting in a fast adsorption rate. It is completed within 2 h, and the adsorption capacity reaches 360 mg/g, which is significantly greater than that of the traditional high-temperature solid-phase method. The adsorption process of Cs+ on HTO-3 is more consistent with the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation model, and the adsorption process is chemical adsorption. HTO-3 exhibited good selectivity and cycle stability. At the fifth time of the adsorption-resolution cycle, the adsorption capacity was 87.1 % of the first time.
