137Cs具有强放射性和较长半衰期, 一旦从核废液中泄露将对人类健康和环境造成很大危害. 由于137Cs+的高溶解性、易迁移性和废液中干扰离子的影响, 从复杂的放射性废液中有效去除137Cs+仍然是一个挑战. 本研究通过溶剂热法合成了两例新的三维微孔镧系金属-有机框架化合物(Me2NH2)0.5(H3O)0.25Na0.25Ln(OH)(stp)•0.25H2O (FJSM-LnMOF; Ln=Eu, Tb; H3stp=2-磺酸基对苯二甲酸), 它们具有良好的水稳定性和一定的耐酸碱性. FJSM-EuMOF和FJSM-TbMOF对Cs+离子吸附具有快速的动力学和高的吸附量(qmCs分别为229.25和211.28 mg/g). 它们对Cs+离子具有良好的选择性(KdCs值高达2.18×103 mL/g). 即使在Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+离子干扰的情况下, 它们仍然表现出对Cs+离子的选择性吸附性能. 我们成功获得了Cs+吸附产物的单晶结构, 通过单晶结构分析结合X射线光电子能谱(XPS), 红外(IR), 扫描电镜能量色散谱(EDS)和元素分析(EA)等多种表征方法, 证实了FJSM-EuMOF对Cs+离子的吸附为离子交换的机理. 结果表明, FJSM-EuMOF对Cs+离子的高效吸附主要源于镧系金属-有机阴离子框架中有机配体上的 COO$\text{SO}_{3}^{}$官能团对Cs+离子强的作用力以及通道内存在易交换的[Me2NH2]+阳离子和[H3O]+离子. 这项工作表明, 镧系金属-有机框架化合物在放射性铯的修复中具有潜在的应用价值.

137Cs has the strong radioactivity and long half-life. In the event of leaking, it will pose a great danger to human health and the environment. The effective removal of 137Cs+ from complex radioactive waste streams remains a challenge due to its high solubility, easy migration and the influence of interfering ions in the waste streams. In this study, two new three-dimensional microporous lanthanide metal-organic framework compounds (Me2NH2)0.5(H3O)0.25Na0.25Ln(OH)(stp)• 0.25H2O (FJSM-LnMOF; Ln=Eu, Tb; H3stp=2-sulfonic acid terephthalic acid) are synthesized by the solvothermal method, which have the good water stability and acid-base resistance. The adsorption performance of FJSM-LnMOFs for Cs+ are tested with solid-liquid ratio of 1∶1 under stirring at room temperature for 8 h. The adsorption kinetics of FJSM-EuMOF for Cs+ are tested with low-concentration Cs+ solution. FJSM-LnMOFs show fast kinetics and high adsorption capacities of Cs+ ions (the maximum adsorption capacities qmCs of FJSM-EuMOF and FJSM-TbMOF are 229.25 and 211.28 mg/g, respectively). They have good selectivity for Cs+ ions (KdCs value up to 2.18×103 mL/g). Even in the presence of interfering Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+ ions, they still show selective adsorption performance for Cs+ ions. Impressively, we successfully obtain the single crystal structure of Cs+-absorbed product by soaking FJSM-EuMOF crystals in 20,000 mg/L Cs+ solution, which confirms that the adsorption mechanism of Cs+ ions is ion exchange by the means of single crystal structure analysis combined with various characterization methods including X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), infrared spectroscopy (IR), energy dispersion spectrum (EDS), elemental analysis (EA). The results indicate that the highly efficient Cs+ adsorption of FJSM-LnMOF mainly originates from the strong interactions between COO and $\text{SO}_{3}^{}$ functional groups from organic ligands and Cs+ ions, and the presence of easily exchangeable [Me2NH2]+ cations and [H3O]+ located in the channels. This work indicates the potential application of lanthanide metal-organic frameworks in the remediation of radioactive cesium.
