Cationic Dye Adsorption by Acrylamide/Itaconic Acid Hydrogels in Aqueous Solutions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Acrylamide/itaconic acid (AAm/IA) hydrogels containing different quantities of itaconic acid have been irradiated with g radiation. The hydrogels were used in an experiment concerning the adsorption of cationic dyes such as Basic Blue 9, Basic Violet 1 and Basic Blue 12. In the experiments of the adsorption of dyes from their synthetic aqueous solutions, type S adsorption isotherms were found. One mole of monomeric unit of AAm/IA hydrogels adsorbed 78.5–513.1 mmole of Basic Blue 9, 60.2–641.1 mmole of Basic Violet 1 and, 28.8–593.3 mmole of Basic Blue 12, while acrylamide hydrogel did not adsorb any cationic dye. As a result, it was shown that the AAm/IA hydrogels could be used as an adsorbent for water pollutants such as dyes, and immobilization of these organic contaminants in the hydrogels from waste water can solve one of the most important environmental problems of the textile industry. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Hybrid polymeric networks composed of polyacrylamide and chitosan were developed to determine their swelling and ascorbic acid delivery kinetics at various chitosan concentrations. The hybrid acrylamide/chitosan hydrogels were synthesized in aqueous itaconic acid solution (1% w/w). Young’s modulus was also evaluated for the hydrogels, and the results were correlated with the swelling properties...
