In the present study, a new type of material of Zr-TSCD was first synthesized and modified with different amounts of triethylenetetramine (TETA). The properties of the adsorbents were characterised with X-ray diffraction, UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, N2 adsorption- desorption, energy dispersion spectrum, and thermogravimetric analysis. The results suggested that Zr-TSCD (TSCD=Na3C6H5O7 2H2O) was successfully synthesized through the coordination of Zr atoms fro...
