Abstract
ABSTRACTMerrifield resin functionalized with different quaternary diammonium groups derived from ethylenediamine (EDA), tetramethylenediamine (TMDA), hexamethylenediamine (HMDA), 1,8-diaminooctane (OMDA), 1,10-diaminodecane (DMDA) and 1,12-diaminododecane (DDMDA) were investigated for the separation of [RhCl5(H2O)]2− and [IrCl6]2−. Selective loading of [IrCl6]2− in 6 M HCl medium onto the column was achieved in the presence of [RhCl5(H2O)]2− by the synthesized sorbents. The iridium loading capacities were 3.80, 6.49, 13.07, 19.29, 27.09 and 4.36 mg/g for EDA, TMDA, HMDA, OMDA, DMDA and DDMDA-functionalized microspheres, respectively. The materials showed great potential for application in separating rhodium and iridium from aqueous HCl solutions.
