Graphene oxide (GO) was chemically modified with poly(ethylene imine) (PEI) to improve its colloidal stability and was investigated as a potential adsorbent for the removal of methyl orange (MO). The synthesis of PEI-GO was verified with a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer and thermogravimetric analysis. A series of adsorption experiments were carried out to investigate the adsorption capacity of PEI-GO. Adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics studies were performed, and the thermodynamic parameters were calculated. The results showed that PEI could improve the colloidal stability of GO in aqueous solution, and the obtained PEI-GO showed a macroscopically homogeneous dispersion after more than three months. After standing for 90 days, the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller specific surface area of GO decreased from 353 to 214 m2 · g−1, while that of PEI-GO remained almost unchanged (from 432 to 413 m2 · g−1). The PEI-GO exhibited significantly faster kinetic and higher adsorption capacity for MO than GO. Moreover, PEI-GO had a good adsorption capacity in the acidic range, and the highest adsorption of MO occurred at pH = 6.0. The adsorption of MO on PEI-GO was an endothermic, spontaneous and physisorption process.

Abstract Magnetic modified graphene oxide was synthesized as a new modified magnetic nano-composite (MMNC) by a simple sonochemical–hydrothermal method. The sonochemical reaction was employed to exfoliate, functionalize and decorate neomycin on graphene oxide sheets. Nickel ferromagnetic particles were synthesized by hydrothermal co-precipitation method and decorated on neomycin-modified graphene oxide. The morphology and chemical structure of MMNC were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy. The adsorption capability of MMNC for removal of phenolic compounds was assessed through adsorption of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) from aqueous solution. The three-factor Box–Behnken design coupled with response surface method was applied to evaluate and optimize the important variables which affect the adsorption process. A significant quadratic model (p-value <0.05, R2(adj) = 0.9593) was derived using analysis of variance. The maximum adsorption capacity of 125.4 mg 4-NP/g MMNC at pH 6 was obtained, which was comparable in some cases and higher than most adsorbents reported in the literature. The presence of neomycin on graphene oxide sheets improved the maximum adsorption capacity of the nano-sorbent up to 28% (from 98.7 to 125.4 mg 4-NP/g adsorbent). The adsorption isotherms fitted well with the Langmuir model (Langmuir constant b = 0.064 l/mg, R2 = 0.9989) and the kinetic study showed that the nitrophenol uptake process followed the pseudo-second-order rate expression (R2 ≥ 0.9960, pseudo-second-order constant K2 ≥ 1.7 × 10−3).
