Abstract

In the present study, an amino group modified hypercrosslinked polymeric adsorbent RDM-200 was prepared and its ability to adsorb pipemidic acid from aqueous solution was tested by using Amberlite XAD-4 as a comparison. Pipemidic acid adsorption isotherm onto RDM-200 is well described by the Freundlich model. The RDM-200 adsorption capacity for PPA was about 510.5 mg/g at 293 K, exhibited larger uptake and stronger affinity of pipemidic acid than XAD-4. The adsorption thermodynamic parameters were calculated and the adsorption was an exothermic, favorable, and more ordered process. The RDM-200 spontaneously adsorbs pipemidic acid mainly by both entropy change and enthalpy change. The RDM-200 exhibited excellent adsorption ability over the pH range 6-10, NaCl showed the positive effect.
