Abstract
Radioactive iodine waste from the nuclear industry poses a critical threat to human health, and its effective capture has become an important research topic. In this study, modified UiO-66-X adsorbents (where X is ATA, BTA, or STA) were used to investigate the effects of the free functional groups in the UiO-66 skeleton on iodine capture in the vapor and solution states. The adsorption behavior revealed that the capture efficiency of UiO-66-ATA was substantially higher than that of UiO-66-BTA and UiO-66-STA because the electron-donating amino groups could enhance the I − I···π halogen bond interactions compared with the electron-withdrawing carboxyl and sulfonic acid groups. In addition, the pore volume of UiO-66-ATA was significantly higher than those of UiO-66-BTA and UiO-66-STA. In particular, the removal uptakes of UiO-66-ATA were 1108.1 mg/g (vapor phase) and 3601.9 mg/g (aqueous solution). This study is the first to investigate the effects of functional groups on the adsorption uptake of UiO-66 toward iodine. This efficient functional group modification strategy holds significant promise for the development of novel metal–organic framework adsorbents.

Topics covered include:
• chemistry of the main group elements and the d- and f-block metals, including the synthesis, characterization and reactivity of coordination, organometallic, biomimetic, supramolecular coordination compounds, including associated computational studies;
• synthesis, physico-chemical properties, applications of molecule-based nano-scaled clusters and nanomaterials designed using the principles of coordination chemistry, as well as coordination polymers (CPs), metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), metal-organic polyhedra (MPOs);
• reaction mechanisms and physico-chemical investigations computational studies of metalloenzymes and their models;
• applications of inorganic compounds, metallodrugs and molecule-based materials.
Papers composed primarily of structural reports will typically not be considered for publication.
