Facile one-pot preparation of AgIn5S8/MoS2 composite for selective adsorption of methylene blue from aqueous solution
Source abstract
Abstract
In this paper, AgIn5S8/MoS2 was prepared simply by a one-pot hydrothermal method and employed in the selective removal of methylene blue (MB) from an aqueous solution. Synthesis conditions of the AgIn5S8/MoS2 composite were optimized by surface area. The morphology and structure of the AgIn5S8/MoS2 composite were also characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscope. It proved that petal-like nanostructures of MoS2 were generated on flower-like AgIn5S8 and the surface area of the AgIn5S8/MoS2 composite (170.1 m2 g−1) is much larger than both pure MoS2 (8.4 m2 g−1) and pure AgIn5S8 (60.9 m2 g−1). Factors of pH and contact time affecting AgIn5S8/MoS2 adsorption of MB were studied in detail. The adsorptive equilibrium times of AgIn5S8/MoS2 for different concentration MB are all very fast within 60 min. The adsorptive kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamics reveal that the adsorptive progress is well-described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm equations and spontaneous and endothermic (∆G° < 0, ∆H° > 0, ∆S° > 0), respectively. The results imply that the AgIn5S8/MoS2 composite with the maximum adsorptive capacity of 90.0 mg g−1 at 25 °C could be used as a potential adsorbent for MB in acidic wastewater as well as printing and dyeing wastewater. Besides, it can also specifically adsorb methyl blue but not methyl violet under alkaline conditions. Graphical abstract
