Özet
In this study, a new reactively fibrous adsorbent was prepared by grafting 4-vinly pyridine (4-VP) and 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate (HEMA) monomer mixture onto poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fibers for removal of Cr(VI), Cu(II) and Cd(II) metal ions from aqueous solution by using batch adsorption method. The influence of various parameters such as graft yield (GY), pH, adsorption time, initial ion concentration and adsorption temperature was investigated. The selectivity of the reactive fiber was also examined. The results show that the adsorbed amount of metal ions followed as given in the order Cr(VI) > Cd(II) > Cu(II). At pH 3, Cr(VI) was removed by 99% while the initial concentration of ions was at 5 mg L-1 and by 94% at 400 mg L-1. It was found that the grafted fiber is more selective for Cr(VI) ions in the mixed solution of Cr(VI)-Cu(II), Cr(VI)-Cd(II) and Cr(VI)-Cu(II)-Cd(II) at pH 3 and it was observed that the grafted fibers are stable and regenerable by acid and base without losing their activity.
