Abstract
The cyclocopolymerization of N,N-diallylglycine hydrochloride, maleic acid and 1,1,4,4-tetraallylpiperazinium dichloride afforded a cross-linked polyzwitterionic acid, which, upon treatment with NaOH, gave the corresponding cross-linked anionic polyelectrolyte (CAPE) in quantitative yield. The pH-responsive resins contained a high density of CO2 - motifs as well as the chelating motifs of glycine residues. The resin CAPE was found to be a super-adsorbent for the removal of pararosaniline hydrochloride (PRH); having a q max of 1534mg/g. The adsorption process followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and was found to be a nearly irreversible process as suggested by the parameters obtained from Elovich kinetic model. The resin demonstrated excellent adsorption/desorption efficiencies, thereby ensuring its recycling and reuse in potent applications like remediation of industrial dye-waste water. The resin's chelating motifs were also efficient in the adsorptive removal of Cd(II) ions with a q max of 248mg/g. It was also employed for the simultaneous and effective trapping of Cd(II) and the dye from industrial wastewater. The resin's impressive performance accords it a prestigious place among many sorbents in recent works.
