以高锰酸钾、无水乙醇、氢氧化锂等为主要原料,采用分步法制备锂离子筛,并考察所得锂离子筛在不同条件下于含锂溶液中的锂吸附情况,同时利用XRD表征相应产物的晶体结构.结果表明,采用分步法可制备具有离子筛特性的锂吸附剂,可从含锂溶液中提取锂,其饱和吸附容量随含锂溶液pH的增大而提高,pH为8时约为26.50mg/g,共存离子Na^+、Ca^2+、Mg^2+等对其锂吸附能力负面影响的大小顺序为Mg^2+〉Ca^2+〉Na^+,锂离子浓度的增大利于吸附容量的提高,该锂离子筛可应用于海水或盐湖卤水提锂;前体、锂离子筛及其不同吸附后产物的晶体结构均与Li1.6Mn1.6O4基本一致,只存在晶胞大小变化所致的细微差别,符合离子筛的特性.
Lithium ion-sieve was synthesized via fractional treatment with KMnO4, anhydrous ethanol and LiOH. The lithium adsorption capacity for different lithium solutions (simple lithium solution, man-made seawater and brine) was tested and the phases of different product were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results show that the adsorption capacity of the as-prepared lithium ion-sieve rises with pH up, and the value is about 26.50 mg/g at pH 8; coexisting ion such as Na+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ has some unfavorable effect on lithium adsorption capacity, and the influence degree is Mg~〉 Ca2~〉 Na+; high lithium concentration has some advantages on adsorption capacity; the as-prepared ion- sieve has prior adsorption for lithium, and it could be applied in lithium extraction from seawater or brine; the crystal phase of precursor, ion-sieve and adsorption products is as same as Li1. 6Mn1.6O4 except for nuance about crystal cell, which is a specialty of ion-sieve.
