Simple Fabrication of PEG Modified W18O49 for Enhanced Adsorption Performance towards Methylene Blue

Article Preview

Abstract:

The W18O49 nanoparticles were synthesized by solvothermal method with tungsten chloride as raw material and n-propanol as solvent. Polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG-400) was modified for W18O49 nanoparticles (W18O49@PEG). The structure and morphology of W18O49 and W18O49@PEG were characterized by XRD and SEM. Methylene blue aqueous solution was used as wastewater adsorption model. And the comparative experiments with other absorbent materials, such as artificial zeolite and activated carbon were also conducted. The results revealed that after modifying by PEG-400, W18O49 has a better adsorption performance than other materials due to its large specific surface area and high surface energy. Finally adsorption circulation experiment was performed,the results indicate that the W18O49@PEG nanoparticles show great potential in the treatment of colored wastewater.
