Abstract

In this study, the removal of a cationic thiazin dye such as Basic Blue 17 (Toluidin Blue, BB 17) by chemically crosslinked acrylamide (AAm)/acrylic acid sodium salt (AASS) hydrogels was investigated. Super water retainer AAm/AASS hydrogels with various compositions were prepared from ternary mixtures of AAm, AASS and water by free radical polymerization in aqueous solution using multifunctional crosslinkers such as ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA), N,N′ methylenebisacrylamide (NMBA), 1,4 butanediol dimethacrylate (BDMA) and trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA). Adsorption of Basic Blue 17 from aqueous solutions was studied by batch sorption technique at 25∘C. The effect of Basic Blue 17 concentration and mass of adsorbent on the dye adsorption were examined.
