Abstract
, respectively. Kinetic and thermodynamic investigations revealed that the adsorption process was endothermic with a fast intraparticle diffusion rate constant. The MOF@PCL MMM also displayed excellent mechanical stability and recyclability, where the removal efficiency was maintained after 10 cycles.
