A directly amine-functionalized mesoporous silica (AMS) was prepared via an anionic surfactant-mediated synthesis method and used as adsorbents for deep removal of Cu ions from aqueous solution at room temperature. The synthesized AMS had been characterized by X-ray diffraction, nitrogen physisorption measurement, and thermogravimetric analysis. The amine groups prefer to position to the surface of AMS material due to the SN ∼ I mechanism. Copper adsorption process had been studied from both kinetic and equilibrium points of view for AMS material. Experiments proved that the aqueous Cu adsorption rates were fast and adsorption capacity was about 53.3 mg/g.
