It is highly desirable to develop an efficient adsorbent with large capacity, high selectivity and fast kinetics to recovery virtually inexhaustible lithium ion (Li+) resources from salt lake brine. In this work, 2-(allyloxy) methylol-12-crown-4 ether (2AM12C4) functionalized polymer brushes (PVBC-g-PCE) from macroporous polymeric high internal-phase emulsion (PolyHIPE) using UV-initiated surface polymerization are synthesized for selectively recovery of Li+. PVBC-g-PCE possesses the advantages of strong physical strength, high density of accessible binding sites, and the size of highly permeatable voids and interconnecting pores is about 8.0-18 mu m and 3.3-4.8 mu m, respectively, which is a favorable adsorbent for specific capture Li+. PVBC-g-PCE has a maximum capacity at pH 6.0, and the pH-dependent adsorption amount suggests the grafted polymer brushes of 2AM12C4 is the driving force to enhance binding performance. PVBC-g-PCE has a fast adsorption equilibrium within 45 min, and the kinetic results are well-described by the pseudo-second-order model, indicating the specific host-guest interaction between functionalized 2AM12C4 and Li+ is the main adsorption mechanism. Moreover, the maximum monolayer binding amount of PVBC-g-PCE is 4.43 mg g(-1), and the strong affinity in the presence of four kinds of interfering ions (i.e. Na+, K+, Mg2+, and Ca2+) is also observed, which can also be proved by the high relative selectivity separation coefficient (alpha(r)) between 3.16 and 7.98. It is expected that this PVBC-g-PCE with abundant easy-to-access specific recognition sites can be applied as a promising adsorbent for effective separation of Li+.
