Trizane functionalized inverse vulcanized copolymer prepared using one-pot method

Abstract. Inverse vulcanized copolymers have emerged as a promising adsorbent for mercury remediation due the presence of S-S chain in their structure. However, these adsorbents are still suffering from low selectivity, adsorption capacity to hydrophobic nature and less functionality. Herein we reported synthesis Trizane functionalized inverse copolymer using one-pot method by reacting sulfur 2,4,6-triallyl-1,3,5-trizane DIB (crosslinker) at 163 oC. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were used characterize resultant copolymers. FTIR spectra all shows absence C=C bond C-C=C there no peak observed 1660 3005 cm-1. TGA revealed that produced thermally stable only started degrade 200 It can be concluded here TAC react successfully with form trizane containing copolymer.
