β-Cyclodextrin-Grafted Cobalt-Aluminum Bimetallic Oxide Modifi ed Acrylic Ester Resin for Oil/Water Separation
https://doi.org/10.1007/s11814-024-00208-z
Abstract
A novel method was developed to introduce β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) cage-like macromolecules into acrylic ester resin using
metal oxides as a medium, resulting in high-oil-absorption resin composites. β-CD was fi rst grafted onto the surface of
cobalt-aluminum bimetallic oxide (CoAl-LDO) via a facile hydrothermal method in an alkaline environment, generating more
pore structures. To enhance the hydrophobic properties of β-CD-grafted CoAl-LDO nanoparticles, KH-570 was employed
as a modifi er to modify nanoparticles. Finally, the β-CD-grafted CoAl-LDO/acrylic ester resin composite was successfully
synthesized by suspension polymerization method. The oil absorption performance of the resin composite was evaluated
using various solvents. Its saturated capacity reached 18.62 g/g for cyclohexane, 19.92 g/g for toluene, and a remarkable
31.42 g/g for trichloromethane. Even for diesel, a challenging oil due to its viscosity, the absorption reached a noteworthy
16.17 g/g. Further demonstrating its selectivity, the composite strictly adsorbed oil while repelling water. Notably, the impressive
capacity remained largely unchanged after eight regeneration cycles.
