Novel Biocompatible Trianglamine Networks for Efficient Iodine Capture
Résumé
Herein, we report for the first time a biocompatible cross-linked trianglamine (Δ) network for the efficient iodine removal from the vapor phase, water, and seawater. In the vapor phase, the cross-linked network could capture 6 g g–1 of iodine, ranking among the most performant materials for iodine vapor capture. In the liquid phase, this cross-linked network is also capable of capturing iodine at high rates from aqueous media (water and seawater). This network displayed fast adsorption kinetics, and they are fully recyclable. This study reveals the high affinity of iodine for the intrinsic cavity of the trianglamine. The synthesized materials are extremely interesting since they are environmentally friendly and inexpensive and the synthesis could easily be scaled up to be used as the material of choice in response to accidents in the nuclear industry.
