Abstract

Metal-organic framework (MOF) materials, which contain mixtures of two or more metals and possess unique properties, offer numerous application opportunities. In this paper, the effect of the Al/Fe molar ratio in the synthesized mixture on the formation of the MOF structure of MIL-53(Al, Fe) material was investigated. The material was used as an adsorbent to remove methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RB) from aqueous solutions. The results showed that the metal-organic framework was formed at different Al/Fe molar ratios, including 5/0, 5/1, 1/1, and 1/5, but hardly formed at the 0/5 ratio. At the ratio of 1/5, the obtained material exhibited high adsorption affinity for both MB and RB. The kinetics and isotherms of the adsorption of MB and RB on this sample were analyzed. The high adsorption capacity of MB and RB indicates that MIL-53(Al, Fe) bimetallic hybrid material is an excellent adsorbent for these dyes.
