A simple solvothermal method was applied for the fabrication of Fe3O4@Poly（4-vinylpyridine） composites with regular structure and uniform size distribution in the presence of 4-vinylpyridine as the structure inducer. The morphology, structure and magnetism performance were characterized and the adsorption model and mechanism were discussed. The results showed that the Fe3O4@Poly（4- vinylpyridine） composites were efficient adsorbent for the removal of Congo red from water and it could be reused by a magnetic separation. The adsorption isotherm of Congo red on Fe3O4@Poly（4- vinylpyridine） composites was fitted well with the Langmuir adsorption model.展开更多
