Abstract

The global outbreak and prevalence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has triggered an urgent demand for family hemodialysis equipment. It is particularly vital to design and apply superior adsorbents to adsorb toxins for reducing the usage of dialysate. In this work, hierarchically structural MgAl layered double oxides (LDO) with stretchable nanopores were exploited through a facile one-pot trisodium citrate (TSC) assistant hydrothermal reaction followed by calcination treatment for effectively adsorbing protein-bound uremic toxins such as hippuric acid (HA) or indoxyl sulfate (IS). The optimized MgAl LDO possessed flower-like spherical morphology, ultrahigh specific surface area (187.3 m/g) and uniquely stretchable nanopores, which were more conducive to incorporating anions due to their unique memory effect endowing them with promising adsorption capacities for HA or IS. And the adsorption data could be better conformed to pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm determining that the maximum adsorption capacity of HA and IS was 129.8 mg/g and 63.1 mg/g, respectively. Furthermore, the computation of molecular size paired with the analysis of adsorption mechanism accurately revealed that high-efficiency toxin capture was mainly attributed to electrostatic interaction for internal intercalation and surface adsorption. Therefore, the application of such delicate LDO as new premium adsorbent would facilitate the development and popularization of family hemodialysis equipment.
