WATER ROLE IN THE GASES CHEMOSORPORATION PROCESSES BY SORPTION-ACTIVE MATERIALS

Abstract

The work summarizes the literature data on the hydration and chemisorption of toxic gases by polymeric sorption-active materials. The mechanisms of absorption by granular and fibrous ion-exchange and impregnated materials and the state of adsorbed water have been studied using various research methods (gravimetric, sorption-thermochemical, derivatographic, IR spectroscopic). The regularities of the hydration processes of granular strongly acidic sulfonic cationexchangers of the brands KU‑2 and KU‑23 (macroporous analogue), fibrous strongly acidic sulfonic cation- exchanger VION KS‑3, fibrous weakly acid carboxylic cation exchanger VION KN‑1 in various ionic forms are considered. Among the anion exchangers, the hydration of granular strongly basic anion- exchangers of the brand AV‑17, granular weakly basic anionexchangers of the brands AN‑25 (AN‑251 macroporous analogue) and ANKB‑35, fibrous strongly basic anion- exchangers of the brands FIBAN A‑6 and FIBAN A‑12, fibrous medium basic anion- exchangers of the brands CM‑2, fibrous weakly basic anion- exchangers of the brands CM-A1, VION AN‑1, VION AN‑3, FIBAN A‑5, FIBAN A‑11 and FIBAN AK‑22 are considered. It has been established that, by nature, the bond with the active centers of water is derided into a «bound» and a ordiner – «free». The first one is a monolayer and the nearest bonded with the ion of the ball; the other is the osmotic swelling water. It has been shown that for the effective absorption of most toxic gases and vapors (SO2, HCl, Cl2, SiF4, HF, NO2, NH3, аміни, COCl2, O3), it is necessary to have «free» water, which is not only a diffusion medium in which mass transfer proceeds, but also is a direct participant in chemisorption.
