| Summary: | In this research, we explored the synthesis optimization of the silica-based quaternized adsorption material (SG-VTS-VPQ) and its adsorption behavior for Pu(IV). By optimizing the synthesis process, the grafting amount of 4-vinylpyridine reached 1.25 mmol·g<sup>−1</sup>. According to the analysis of NMR and XPS, the quaternization rate of pyridine groups reached 91.13%. In the adsorption experiments, the thermodynamic experiment results show that the adsorption of Pu(IV) by SG-VTS-VPQ is more in line with the Langmuir adsorption model and the adsorption type is a typical chemical adsorption; the kinetic results show that adsorption process is more in line with the pseudo first-order kinetic model, and the larger specific surface area of SG-VTS-VPQ plays an important role in the adsorption. The results of the adsorption mechanism show that the adsorption of Pu(IV) by SG-VTS-VPQ is mainly complex anion Pu(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>6</sub><sup>2−</sup> and Pu(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>5</sub><sup>−</sup>. This research provides in-depth and detailed ideas for the surface modification and application of porous silica gel, and at the same time provides a new way to develop the direction of the analysis of pretreatment materials in the spent fuel reprocessing field.
