Divalent metal ions play numerous roles in biological, technological, and environmental systems. This study examines the role of a variety of ions, Mg(2+), Ca(2+), Mn(2+), Ni(2+), Cu(2+), and Zn(2+), in the adsorption of sodium decanoate at the carbon tetrachloride-water interface. For all ions studied, the ions drive the adsorption of the surfactant to the interface. Using vibrational sum-freq...

−Recent developments in the synthesis and structureproperty investigation studies of conjugated polymers have led to the design of novel polymeric materials with tailored properties for advanced technological applications. A promising development in this direction involves the fabrication of conducting polymer based sensors for the detection of metal ions and small organic molecules. Herein, we...

The toxic effect of metal ions like chromium (Cr3+), cobalt (Co2+), nickel (Ni2+), copper (Cu2+), cadmium (Cd2+) and lead (Pb2+) on biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) of synthetic wastewater samples has been studied at different temperatures i.e., 15 degrees C, 20 degrees C, 25 degrees C and 30 degrees C. Experiments were conducted for BOD exertion in presence (10 ppm of each metal ion) and in the...

Some new complexes of thiacetazone (Thz) and quinalizarin (Qz) with Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Pb(II) were prepared. The ligands and their metal complexes were characterized by phisco-chemical spectroscopic techniques. The spectral data suggested that the thiacetazone as a neutral bidentate ligand is coordinated with the metal ions through the N and S atoms. The ...

ABSTRACTIn this work, the micro powder was the product of cedar leaf (MPCL) is used as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of Pb2+ ions from aqueous solutions. Bath experiments were used to determine the best adsorption conditions The adsorption percentage of Pb2+ ions MPCL samples at different initial pH, contact time (tc), adsorbent dosage and temperature (T) were investigated. Effective rem...

Porphyrins are a group of tetrapyrrole pigments. Physical and chemical properties of porphyrins are often related to their compositions and structures. We conducted 1H solution NMR and UV-visible spectral analysis to characterize the structural feature of a water-soluble, synthetic porphyrin i.e. tetrakis (p-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin, TPPS4, and its interaction with different metal ions in aqu...

4,4'-Bis(dihexylaminocarbonyl)-2,2'-bipyridine (BDC-Bipy) was synthesized and studied systematically as a chelating reagent for metal ions extraction in supercritical CO(2). The compound showed high extraction efficiency for Co(2+) (100%), Cu(2+) (100%), Cd(2+) (98.2%), and Zn(2+) (100%) ions and good extraction efficiency for Sr(2+) (79.4%) and Pb(2+) (89.8%) when the extraction was performed ...

Carbon active chemically bonded ethylenediamine as one sorbents successfully were applied for the enrichment of trace amount of some metal ions. The influences of the variables including pH, amount of solid phase, sample flow rate, type and condition of eluting solution and sample volume on the metal ions recoveries were investigated. The method has high sorption-preconcentration efficiency eve...

Corrosion of metals depends on the kind of metal and the prevailing conditions in the medium (temperature, pH, pressure, concentration, etc.) as well as the type of ions such as CO3 , NO − 3 , Cl − and NO2 present in the medium. It will be useful to briefly discuss the effects of some ions on metals. The ions mentioned above have different effects on metals. For example, CO3 is adsorbed on the ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the behavior of high-noble gold-platinum alloy samples (18 + 8 Rafinerija plemenitih kovina, Zagreb, Hrvatska), in a phosphate buffer pH 6.0. The aim of the study was to determine the type and amount of released metal ions from the alloy, and to evaluate how the time of exposure to the phosphate buffer pH 6.0 influences the release of metal ions from the al...
