Hybrid poly(ether sulfones) (PES)-TiO electrospun mats are used as selective filters to remove lead and zinc ions from water. Presence of TiO is functional to trigger fiber's surface charge that allows for better performances in terms of ionic adsorption with respect to bare PES mats. Temperature increase promotes a speed up of ion removal. Ability of electrospun mats to retain adsorbed ions is proven by washing procedures, which confirm the lack of released Pb in solution, even after sonication. To detect presence of metal ions in aqueous solutions, water-soluble porphyrins are used as chemosensors, which are able to provide fast, in-field, and real-time analysis. In particular, cationic H2T4 metalation, occurring both in solution or at transparent glass surface, allows for a straightforward spectrophotometric (UV-vis) detection of metal ions in solution.
混合聚醚砜(PES)-二氧化钛(TiO)电纺垫被用作选择性过滤器,用于从水中去除铅和锌离子。TiO的存在有助于引发纤维表面电荷,这使得在离子吸附方面比纯PES垫具有更好的性能。温度升高会加快离子去除速度。通过洗涤程序证明了电纺垫保留吸附离子的能力,该程序证实即使在超声处理后溶液中也没有释放出铅。为了检测水溶液中金属离子的存在,水溶性卟啉被用作化学传感器,能够提供快速、现场和实时分析。特别是,阳离子H2T4金属化在溶液中或透明玻璃表面均会发生,这使得能够通过分光光度法(紫外可见)直接检测溶液中的金属离子。
