Abstract
AbstractIn this study, H4Ti5O12@CNT ion sieves with an encapsulated structure were fabricated by combining pretreated carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as a template and carbon source, C16H36O4Ti as a titanium source, and CH3COOLi as a lithium source. By characterizing and analyzing the pretreated and untreated CNTs, numerous COOH and OH functional groups were introduced into the pretreated CNTs, which improved their dispersion in aqueous solutions and ethanol and facilitated the adsorption of lithium ions. The ion sieves prepared with the precursor roasted at 700 °C showed the best adsorption performance. Moreover, the structural integrity of the ion sieves was not affected by acid washing. For the first adsorption cycle, the ion sieves had a lithium‐ion saturated adsorption capacity of 32.32 mg/g. After five adsorption–desorption cycles, the adsorption capacity only decreased by 5.1% to 30.68 mg/g, which shows that they had good cycling stability.
