Ultrasound-assisted synthesis of Zinc(II)-based metal organic framework nanoparticles in the presence of modulator for adsorption enhancement of 2,4-dichlorophenol and amoxicillin

O) is produced, which is called compound 1. To this end, the dicarboxylate linker of TDC, (2,5-thiophene dicarboxylic acid) and the pillar spacer of 4-BPMH, (N,N-bis-pyridin-4-ylmethylene-hydrazine) were employed. Moreover, variations in the morphology and growth of the micro/nanoparticles of compound 1 were investigated in terms of the effect of temperature, ultrasound irradiation power, sonication time, initial reagent concentrations, and pyridine concentration as a modulator. DFT model was used to examine the sonication effect on the distribution of the pore sizes. Moreover, the preparation method effect on the porosity and removal of two sample pollutants (i.e., 2,4-dichlorophenol (24-DCP) and amoxicillin (AMX)) from wastewater was studied.
