Abstract
To form polymer-supported catalysts, to eliminate excess H2O2 during wastewater treatment, the assembly of metal ion on cellulose was investigated. Cellulose was covalently grafted with reactive azo-Schiff base containing azo-conjugated system, 3,5-bis {2-hydroxyphenyl-5-[(2-sulfate-4-sulfatoethylsulphonyl-azobenzol) methylene amino]} benzoic acid. Metal ions, Co2+, Mn2+, and Cu2+, were anchored to the modified cellulose by controlling assembly. The cellulose-supported complexes were characterized and the catalytic activity for H2O2 was investigated. Elemental analyses of the cellulose supported complexes, MC–Co, MC–Mn, were well agreed with the proposed composition. Three cellulose-supported complexes had strong catalytic activities for H2O2. H2O2 decomposition rates in 10 min were 84.54% for MC–Co, 94.87%, for MC–Mn, and 77.21% for MC–Cu, respectively. The manganese complex had the strongest catalytic activity among them. The cellulose-supported complexes have potential application in wastewater treatment and biotechnology.
