However, achieving controlled functionalization of hollow mesoporous hydroxyapatite (HM-HAP) particles while maintaining its structural integrity continuous to be a significant problem in adsorption research. This work involved hydrothermal synthesis of HM-HAP particles by utilizing a CaCO₃ core template followed by surface functionalization with different concentrations of (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES). The functionalization altered the negatively charged HM-HAP surface to a positively charged one, as shown by a change in point of zero charge (PZC), zeta potential and surface morphology. The adsorption performance of APTES/HM-HAP adsorbent was examined using RYD-145 and SY as model anionic dyes. The equilibrium data was best described by the Langmuir isotherm model with R² value 0.99, indicating monolayer adsorption, with maximum uptake capacity (<em>q</em>_<em>m</em>) values of 525.6 mg g⁻¹ for RYD-145 and 297.13 mg g⁻¹ for SY. Kinetic investigations indicated that the adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order model with R² values 0.97 and 0.96 for RYD-145 and SY, suggesting a chemisorption mechanism. Thermodynamic studies revealed that the adsorption of RYD-145 was endothermic, whereas SY was exothermic, with both processes being spontaneous (<em>ΔG°</em> &lt; 0). Desorption studies demonstrated that NaOH was the most effective eluent, with desorption efficiencies of 88.5 % for RYD-145 and 87.3 % for SY. The adsorbent retained approximately 80 % of its adsorption efficiency during four consecutive cycles, demonstrating excellent reusability. Moreover, the adsorbent was applied to real industrial dye wastewater, exhibiting remarkable efficiency in reducing dye concentration. A guppy fish bioassay validated a substantial decrease in toxicity, with the APTES/HM-HAP treated water exhibiting no fish mortality or dermal damage, unlike the untreated sample. Furthermore, the chemical oxygen demand (COD) was decreased from 2316 mg L⁻¹ to 755 mg L⁻¹ post treatment, signifying effective removal of the organic pollutants. This study offers a comprehensive strategy for designing functionalized adsorbents, emphasizing the significance of surface chemistry in improving dye adsorption. APTES-modified HM-HAP provides an efficient, selective, and reusable method for the removal of anionic dyes from wastewater, addressing a significant environmental issue.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":392,"journal":{"name":"Microporous and Mesoporous Materials","volume":"399 ","pages":"Article 113852"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145046952","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The choice of cross-linker significantly influenced polymer properties, including morphology, chemical composition, and pore structure.
