Abstract
A novel type of magnetic porous carbonaceous polymeric material, CTF/Fe(2)O(3) composite (CTF = covalent triazine-based framework), has been synthesized by a facile microwave-enhanced high-temperature ionothermal method. By selecting ZnCl(2) as a reaction medium and the Lewis acid catalyst, and choosing FeCl(3)·6H(2)O as an iron oxide precursor, a series of CTF/Fe(2)O(3) composites with different γ-Fe(2)O(3) contents has been prepared in 60 min. The resulting samples were characterized by the X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibration sample magnetometer (VSM), and N(2) sorption-desorption isotherms. The obtained CTF/Fe(2)O(3) composites exhibit high surface areas (930-1149 m(2) g(-1)), and their saturation magnetizations at 300 K vary from 1.1 to 5.9 emu g(-1), depending respectively on different Fe(2)O(3) contents (6.43-12.43 wt%) in the CTF/Fe(2)O(3) composites. The CTF/Fe(2)O(3) composites were applied to remove organic dye from aqueous solution by selecting methyl orange as a model molecule, and both high adsorption capacity (291 mg g(-1), corresponding to 0.889 mmol g(-1)) and fast adsorption kinetics (k(ads) = 4.31 m(2) mg(-1) min(-1)) were observed.
