摘　　要：低浓度放射性氙(Xe)和氪(Kr)混合气的吸附分离对于其核数据的准确测量以及核设施放射性废气的净化具有重要意义。本文采用聚乙烯醇作为粘结剂制备了HKUST-1颗粒样品。HKUST-1颗粒样品的抗压测试结果表明,其具有较高的抗压强度。HKUST-1粉末样品和颗粒样品的Xe(Kr)静态吸附数据表明,在0℃或25℃吸附温度下,HKUST-1粉末样品和颗粒样品低吸附压力下的Xe(Kr)吸附量、Xe(Kr)亨利系数以及Xe/Kr亨利选择性基本相同;造粒后颗粒样品的Xe(Kr)零点等量吸附热较造粒前减小。采用动态穿透曲线法研究了HKUST-1颗粒样品在25℃和100 kPa下分离低浓度Xe和Kr(Xe 50 ppm、Kr 50 ppm)的性能。结果表明,HKUST-1颗粒样品可实现低浓度的Xe/Kr分离,Xe穿透(c/c 0=0.02)时的Xe动态吸附量和相应的Xe/Kr动态吸附选择性随瞬时进样流量的增大而增大,Xe(Kr)饱和吸附量及相应的Xe/Kr动态吸附选择性在不同瞬时进样流量下基本保持不变。惠勒-琼斯方程对Xe穿透曲线初始部分(c/c 0≤0.02)的非线性拟合结果表明,该方程可用于预测Xe在HKUST-1颗粒吸附柱上穿透的初始阶段。Nuclear data are used to describe the properties of the nucleus and the reactions of the nucleus with other particles.The accuracy and reliability of nuclear data play important roles in nuclear fundamental research and nuclear technology application.The radioactive noble gas Xe and Kr are usually used for neutron activation analysis of nuclear materials.However,it is necessary to separate radioactive Xe from Kr because of the interference of radioactive Kr isotopes during nuclear data measurement.Furthermore,separating Kr from Xe is an important step in removing long half-life radioactive 85 Kr during spent nuclear fuel treatment.Therefore,separation of Xe and Kr from Xe/Kr mixtures is of great importance to the accuracy of nuclear data measurement and the capture of radioactive gaseous products from nuclear facilities.The conventional method to separate Xe and Kr is fractional distillation at cryogenic temperatures,which is an energy intensive process and not suitable for low concentration radioactive gas separation.The adsorptive separation of Xe/Kr mixtures using porous materials is considered as an energy-effective and cost-effective alternative.Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)receive much attention in a variety of applications due to their large specific surface area,adjustable porosity,and easy functionalization.HKUST-1 is a representative MOF composed of dimeric Cu 2+paddlewheel secondary building units with unsaturated metal centers and benzenetricarboxylate linkers,and it is regarded as an attractive adsorbent for gas-adsorption because of its accessible open Cu 2+metal sites in the pore and the ease of industrial-scale preparation.However,HKUST-1 is mostly fabricated in powder form which require well shaped from powders to a suitable particle while maintaining their intrinsic properties and performances in real application scenarios.It is worth noting that unshaped MOF powder is not suitable for adsorption columns or pressure/temperature swing adsorption units,as the powders can lead to issues such as pr
