Abstract

The present invention relates to an organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material having high selectivity to particular metal ions, and a method for preparing the same. Specifically, the present invention provides an organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material and a method for preparing the same, wherein the organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material has a closed pore form by capturing a functionalized silane compound in a nanoporous silica material, which is surface-modified with a functionalized silane compound, using a cyclic molecule, and enables the sensing and highly selective adsorption of various metals due to the incorporation of an organic ligand capable of adsorbing metal ions in pores.

2. The organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material of claim 1 , wherein the cyclic molecule is cyclodextrin, crown ether, cyclopropane pseudorotaxane, bistable rotaxane, cucurbit uril or a derivative thereof.

3. The organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material of claim 1 , wherein the organic ligand is cryptand, crown ether, porphyrin, or a derivative thereof.

4. The organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material of claim 1 , wherein the metal ion is at least one selected from the group consisting of a lithium ion, an iron ion, a copper ion, a cobalt ion, and a nickel ion.

5. The organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material of claim 4 , wherein the metal ion is the nickel ion (Ni 2+ ).

6. The organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material of claim 1 , wherein the organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material has a pore arrangement of a hexagonal structure, a cubic structure, a layered structure or a disordered structure.

7. The organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material of claim 6 , wherein the organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material having the pore arrangement has an average pore diameter of 2 to 30 nm and a surface area of 500 to 1000 m 2 /g.

8. An adsorbent having selective adsorptivity to metal ions, comprising the organic-inorganic hybrid nanoporous silica material of claim 1 .
