Abstract

The polyvinyl chloride (PVC) based zirconium phosphate composite membrane was synthesized by co-precipitation method. The composite membrane was characterized by using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetry analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The order of charge effectiveness was found to be HgCl2<PbCl2<CdCl2. This composite membrane showed potential applications in the area of separation of heavy metal ions from wastewater because of good stabilities, long lifetimes and cost effectiveness.
