Abstract:
A novel composite, EPIDMA/D301, with high adsorption capacity and particular affinity toward Cr(Ⅵ) was well prepared utilizing cationic polyelectrolyte poly-epichlorohydrin-dimethylamine (EPIDMA) impregnated in the networking pores of the styrene macroporous weak basic anion exchange resin D301. The physicochemical characteristics of EPIDMA/D301 were characterized by the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), zeta potential, FTIR, SEM-Mapping and XPS. The adsorption properties were researched via the influence of the concentration of EPIDMA, adsorbent dose, pH, the initial concentration of Cr(Ⅵ) solution, contact time and temperature. Results presented that the weakly basic anion exchange resin supported cationic polymer showed the excellent potential of removing Cr(VI) ions primarily due to the nonspecific Cr(VI) adsorption resulted from the polymeric host D301, the electrostatic attraction of amino groups fixed on the D301 matrix and the embedded EPIDMA with Cr(VI) ions and the ion exchange by the displacement of Cl- mainly derived from EPIDMA with Cr(VI) ions. The kinetic data were best fitted by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The batch equilibrium data followed Langmuir isotherm model well with the maximum adsorption capacity of 194 mg g-1 at 25 °C, which demonstrated that the styrene anion exchange resin modified with EPIDMA might be an efficient approach to eliminate potentially toxic metals.
