▎ 摘　　要

Amino-functionalized multilayer graphene oxide (Am-nGO) has been synthesized and applied to remove the reactive drimaren red (DR) from aqueous solutions. Infrared spectroscopy evidenced amine and amide presence by peaks at 1579 cm(-1) and a band between 3300 and 3500 cm(-1). Raman spectroscopy showed an increment in I-D/I-G ratio after amino-Fe3O4-functionalization of nGO from 1.05 to 1.20, referent to an increase in sp(3) domain disorder. The isoelectric point of Am-nGO was pH 8.1. From kinetic study, the equilibrium was achieved within 90 min; moreover, pseudo-n-order model satisfactorily fitted to the experimental data. Kinetic constant (k(n)) was 0.71 mg(1-n) g(1-n) min(-1) and modeled equilibrium sorption capacity (q(e)) 219.17 mg g(-1). Equilibrium experiments showed monolayer adsorption capacity (q(m)) of 219.75 mg g(-1), and BET model best fitted to the equilibrium data, indicating that the adsorption process happened with multiple layers formation. From sorption thermodynamics, the standard free energy of Gibbs and enthalpy were respectively - 31.91 kJ mol(-1) (at 298 K) and 66.43 kJ mol(-1). Such data evidence the spontaneous and chemical behavior of DR adsorption as a consequence of strong electron donor-receptor interactions between the dye and the nanosorbent. By phytotoxicity assessment, Am-nGO showed inexpressive inhibitory potential to American lettuce seeds in comparison with its precursor nGO and graphite nanoplatelets.
