Magnetic Triethylene-tetramine Graphene oxide (M-T-GO) was firstly synthesized by constant temperature stirring and hydrothermal methods in this work, and characterized by Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS). Adsorption capacity of ionic dyes on M-T-GO under different pH, adsorption time and initial concentration were investigated. At the same time adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherm were fitted respectively. Pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir model fitted the adsorption of ionic dyes on M-T-GO. The adsorption property of M-T-GO for TY and MB was outstanding and the saturated adsorption capacities were 157.23mg/g and 169.49mg/g, respectively. Compared with GO, M-T-GO could remove ionic dyes more effectively. Moreover, M-T-GO made separation easy in the foreign magnetic field and possessed good performance of regeneration.
