In this work, a highly selective and efficient polymer adsorbent inspired by a water-soluble sulfonated poly(arylene ether nitrile) (SPEN) was successfully synthesized. Due to the distinct structure of functional carboxyl, sulfonic acid and rigid benzene rings, a facile aluminium (III) ions crosslinking method was employed to fabricate the SPEN-based adsorbents (SPEN-Al). Among the three adsorbents, SPEN-Al-2 exhibited superior adsorption capacities with uniform morphology. Subsequently, the SPEN-Al-2 was selected as the adsorbent for three cationic dyes (rhodamine B (Rh B), neutral red (NR), methylene blue (MB)) and three anionic dyes (orange G (OG), methyl orange (MO), acid fuchsin (AF)), respectively, demonstrating that the adsorbent possessing excellent selectivity toward cationic dyes. Moreover, the dye's adsorption selectivity of SPEN-Al-2 was further certificated in a binary cationic-anionic dyes mixtures (MB/OG and MB/MO) system. Taking MB as a dye model, a series of factors (contact time, concentration, temperature and pH) and adsorption models were systematically investigated in dye adsorption experiments. Results indicated that the adsorption was endothermic and the maximum adsorption capacity of SPEN-Al-2 could reach up to 877.5 mg/g; pseudo-second-model and Langmuir model were fitted to the adsorption kinetics and equilibrium isotherm, respectively, manifesting that SPEN-Al adsorbent was promising in the dyes removing field.
