Abstract

Air pollution is related to the development of people's livelihood. As one of the main pollutants in the air, formaldehyde affects people's physical and mental health. In order to remove formaldehyde and better protect the health of residents, it is very necessary to develop efficient adsorption materials. In this study, a cellulose composite aerogel Microcrystalline Cellulose/ N-(2- aminoethyl) -3- aminopropyl methyl dimethoxysilane (MCC/APMDS) modified by APMDS was explored. The pore volume and specific surface area of the modified aerogel decreased, the average pore diameter increased, and the adsorption capacity of formaldehyde was stronger. The adsorption experiment shows that the sample prepared under the conditions of APMDS dosage of 6 wt%, reaction time of 4 h and reaction temperature of 90℃ has the largest average pore size (14.56 nm) and the largest formaldehyde adsorption capacity (9.52 mg/g). The excellent adsorption of the composite aerogel is due to high porosity and rich active amino groups on the surface. This study provides valuable information for the preparation of adsorption materials with high formaldehyde adsorption capacity for air purification.
