▎ 摘  要

Graphene oxide/ferroferric oxide/polyethylenimine (GO/Fe3O4/PEI) nanocomposites were synthesized by an in situ growth of Fe3O4 nanoparticles on GO sheets, and then modified by PEI. The GO/Fe3O4/PEI nanocomposites showed extremely high removal efficiency for anionic dye Congo Red (CR) due to the positively charged PEI molecules ( methylene blue was also tested but with low adsorption capacity due to its cationic property). The CR removal capacity was 574.7 mg g(-1), higher than most of reported results. The adsorption kinetics could be well described by a pseudo-second-order model. Furthermore, GO/Fe3O4/PEI nanocomposites could be easily recycled by magnetic separation. The removal efficiency remained above 70% after five cycles.
