Interconnected macroporous foams were synthesized by templating oil-in-water Pickering high internal phase emulsions solely stabilized by lignin particles. They exhibited excellent adsorption capacity for copper(II) ions in aqueous solutions.

The complex formation reaction, between fluoroquinolones (FQ): ciprofloxacin (CPX), enoxacin (ENX), enrofloxacin (ENRX), lomefloxacin (LOMX), levofloxacin (LEVX), ofloxacin (OFX), norfloxacin (NFX), sparfloxacin (SPRX) and aluminum(III), iron(III), copper(II) and zinc(II) ions were investigated. The spectrophotometic titration method in a wide range of pH was utilized for estimation of complex ...

N,N,N’,N’-tetrakis-(2-hydroxypropyl)-ethylenediamine (Sche me 1), which is also known as Quadrol (Q), due to its perfect chelating properties with regard to copper(II) ions is widely used as a ligand in electroless copper plating solutions [1–6]. Therefore, analysis of literature sources on the interaction of metal ions with Quadrol shows that the majority of publications deal with copper(II). ...

The presence of either copper(I) or copper(II) chloride in the polyol reduction of silver nitrate facilitates the production of silver nanowires. Silver nanowires have applications in many areas, including electronics and catalysis. These wires are produced quickly (in approximately one hour), with the synthesis being easily performed in disposable glass vials, using only pipettes to deliver re...

The sorption of copper ions onto natural bamboo sawdust with cellulose-lignin polymeric structure strongly depends on pH. The adsorption capacity for copper ions increases as increasing pH and copper loadings. The fitting of copper pH boundary curve by NEM surface complexation models shows that: three-sites model including the ion exchange reaction of permanent charge fits better than two-sites...

this study investigated the feasibility of using different extracting solutions at various concentrations to remove copper from low permeability silty loam soils, which have a high buffering soil, ph of 7.6, where it spiked with copper at concentration of about 1500 mg/kg to represent soil conditions. the most efficient extracting solutions could be used as purging/extracting solutions in other...

A novel energy-saving hydrometallurgical recovery process for copper from electronic scrap employing the Cu(I)-ammine complex has been presented on the basis of a thermodynamic consideration. In order to experimentally explore the feasibility of the leaching stage in this process, the copper leaching behavior from a printed circuit board (PCB) in ammoniacal alkaline solutions has been investiga...

Redox active transition metal ions (e.g., iron and copper) have been implicated in the etiology of many oxidative stress-related diseases including also neurodegenerative disorders. Unbound copper can catalyze formation of reactive oxygen species (hydroxyl radicals) via Fenton reaction/Haber-Weiss chemistry and therefore, under physiological conditions, free copper is potentially toxic and very...

S,S'-bis(2-aminophenyl)ethanebis(thioate), (APhET), is reported as N2S2 ligand which form chelate with copper of high stability as compared to the other metals. Two modification of APhET, simpler 1,2-di-(o-aminophenylthio)ethane (DAPhTE), and the complex one 1,2-di-(o-salicylaldiminophenylthio)ethane (SAPhTE), were examined as the active material for copper(II) ion selective PVC membrane electr...

Interactions between sinefungin and copper(II) ions were investigated. Stoichiometry and stability constants of the metal-free system and two mononuclear complexes present in solution were determined on the basis of potentiometric data analysis. The results were compared to the Cu(II)-ornithine system due to structural similarities between both molecules. Combined spectroscopic and theoretical ...
