Preparation of Hollow Polyaniline Micro/Nanospheres and Their Removal Capacity of Cr (VI) from Wastewater

Abstract: The hollow polyaniline (PANI) micro/nanospheres are obtained through a simple monomer polymerization in alkaline solution with Triton X-100 Micelles as soft templates. The hollow PANI micro/nanospheres demonstrate rapid and effective removal ability for Chromium (VI) (Cr (VI)) in a wide pH range, and the maximum removal capacity can reach 127.88 mg/g at pH 3. After treated with acid, the used hollow PANI micro/nanospheres have about the similar removal capacity of Cr (VI) from wastewater.

“…Inversely, CrO 4 2− in alkaline solution is hard to be reduced to Cr(III) due to the lower redox potential [ 35 , 39 ], and it would cause a lower removal capacity of PANI/m-FB composites as pH value increases. The transformation of Cr(VI) can be seen as follows [ 5 , 16 ]: …”

“…(pH between 5.5 and 7.0) form as pH increases [11]. That means when pH is below 4.0, the reduced Cr(III) dominantly existed in Cr 3+ form with 3 positive charges, which is unfavourable to be adsorbed because the increase of electrostatic repulsion between Cr 3+ and protonated PANI would overcome the chelation interaction between Cr 3+ and PANI [16]. However, as pH value increases to 5.0, the electrostatic repulsion between the PANI/m-FB composites and Cr(III) is decreased gradually due to the decrease amount of positive charges in the form of Cr(III), and it would cause a little effect on chelation interaction, which is considered as the main factor to adsorb reduced Cr(III) in acid solution.…”
