Abstract

Adsorbents PAMAM-n.0MBTSG (n=1-4) have been prepared by immobilizing polyamidoamine (PAMAM) and 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) on silica-gel. Characterized with FTIR, SEM, TGA, the preconcentration of Pb2+ with PAMAM-n.0MBTSG(n=1-4) has been investigated by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectroscopy (GFAAS). SEM showed that the surface morphology of adsorbent changed with the generation increase of PAMAM. Adsorption capacity of PAMAM-n.0MBTSG for Pb2+ (n=1-4) reached 16.22, 19.84, 22.92 and 27.56 mg g-1 respectively. Pb2+ (1.0 ng mL-1) in 2000 mL solution could be quantitatively absorbed with PAMAM-4.0MBTSG and eluted to obtain a preconcentration factor (PF) of 200. GFAAS method for analysis of Pb2+ with PAMAM-4.0MBTSG as adsorbent was proposed and successfully applied to analysis of Pb2+ of standard reference material, sea water and squid sample.
