Abstract
AbstractInto purified organic wastewater, α-, β-, and γ-cyclodextrin (α-, β-, and γ-CD) were added to polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with ammonium persulfate as the crosslinker. The CD/PVA composite film with low water solubility and supramolecular adsorption was prepared by solvent evaporation. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that when CD was successfully added to PVA, the crosslinking process had no effect on -OH, and the structure was stable after soaking in water for 120 h. Solubility experiments showed that the stability of PVA in water was significantly improved. The results of phenolphthalein adsorption showed that the composite film followed the Langmuir isothermal adsorption and the pseudo-second-order kinetics. According to the Langmuir equation, the theoretical maximum adsorption capacities of α-, β- and γ-CD/PVA composite films were 0.41, 2.05, and 2.00 mg/g, respectively. The parameters of the Freundlich equation indicate that the adsorption of the composite film is physical adsorption. The time for α-CD/PVA composite film to reach equilibrium was the shortest, while the longest was for β-CD/PVA composite film. The intraparticle diffusion model showed that the adsorption was mainly affected by the diffusion of the boundary layer, and the diffusion rate limitation of the boundary layer of the high-concentration phenolphthalein solution was more obvious.
