The novel La-MOF@x%PANI composite was synthesized via a two-step procedure with ultra-sonication, and the adsorption mechanism of Pb²⁺ ions from synthetic aqueous solutions was systematically studied. The Pb²⁺ adsorption on the La-MOF@x%PANI was evaluated by the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and elemental mapping analyses. The effects of the adsorption-influencing parameters, including contact time, solution pH, and co-existing cations on the maximum adsorption capacity of Pb²⁺ onto the prepared composite material were investigated. Moreover, the adsorption of Pb²⁺ ions could be eliminated with rapid adsorption kinetics using the water-stable La-MOF@x%PANI composite. The as-synthesized La-MOF@50%PANI exhibited excellent adsorption performance toward Pb²⁺ ions with an extraordinary adsorption capacity of 185.19 mg/g at pH 6. The Pb²⁺ adsorption onto the La-MOF@x%PANI composite follows the pseudo-second-order kinetics and fits well with the Langmuir isotherm model, indicating the Pb²⁺ adsorption depended on the solution pH as the adsorption mechanism was mainly governed by the electrostatic attraction. Notably, La-MOF@x%PANI composite possesses outstanding regeneration ability and stability after up to four successive cycles. The satisfactory findings reflect that the La-MOF@50%PANI hybrid composite holds a great promise for remediating Pb²⁺ ions from aqueous environments.
