Abstract
Macroporous crosslinked polydivinylbenzene/polyacryldiethylenetriamine (PDVB/PADETA) interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) were prepared in this study and their adsorption performance was investigated using o-aminobenzoic acid as the adsorbate. The results indicated that PDVB/PADETA IPNs had a large equilibrium capacity to o-aminobenzoic acid, the Freundlich and Sips models were appropriate for fitting the equilibrium data, and the isosteric enthalpy kept constant (about −30kJmol−1) with the equilibrium capacity at 5–125mgg−1. The pseudo-first-order rate equation characterized the kinetic data better than the pseudo-second-order rate equation. At an initial concentration of 593.1mgL−1 and a flow rate of 84mLh−1, the breakthrough and saturated capacities were 50.62 and 95.70mgmL−1 wet resin, respectively, and the resin column could be regenerated by 0.1molL−1 of sodium hydroxide (w/v) and 40% of ethanol (v/v).
