Influence of the Degree of Chitosan Sulfoethylation on the Sorption of Palladium(II) Chloride Complexes from Multicomponent Solutions

详细

The influence exerted by the degree of substitution of sulfoethylated chitosan cross-linked with glutaraldehyde on the sorption of Pd(II) chloride complexes from multicomponent solutions containing Pt(IV), Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Cd(II), and Zn(II) was studied. The sorption of transition metal ions under the conditions of the experiment at pH 0.5–5.0 is virtually fully suppressed. The strongest interfering effect on the Pd(II) sorption is exerted by Pt(IV). Calculation of the selectivity coefficients K_Pd/Pt shows that the selectivity of the Pd(II) sorption relative to Pt(IV) increases with an increase in the degree of substitution of chitosan from 0.3 to 0.5. Integral kinetic curves of the Pd(II) sorption were obtained, and the dependences were subjected to mathematical processing using the models of diffusion and chemical kinetics. The equilibrium in the palladium(II) chloride solution–sorbent system is attained within 40 min. Pd and Pt are quantitatively desorbed from the sorbent surface under dynamic conditions with 3.5 M HCl solution.
