Abstract
Variation of the equilibrium uptake of cationic dyes with pH has shown that sulfonic groups in polyacrylonitrile fibers behave as weak acids. Deviations of experimental results from a Langmuir-type relation derived for competition between different cations for a limited number of anionic sites could be explained by electrostatic repulsive interactions between the sites. What appeared to be favorable interactions were attributed to a partial covalent character in the bond between dye and sulfonate group.
