Preparation and characterization of strong cation exchange terpolymer resin as effective adsorbent for removal of disperse dyes

Abstract

In this study, (hydroxypropylmethacrylate‐co‐ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate‐co‐glycidylmetharylate) terpolymer resin functionalized with sulfonic acid groups was prepared and used as cation exchange resin for removal of two different disperse dyes (i.e., Direct Red R [DR‐R] and Disperse Violet 28 [DV‐28]) from aqueous solution. The properties of the adsorbent were determined using Fourier transform infrared, dynamic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy, and Brunauer, Emmett, and Teller methods. The maximum adsorption capacity of the resin for the DR‐R and DV‐28 was found to be 86.1 and 179.6 mg/g, respectively. Desorption study was realized to evaluate the reusability of the resin and the percent desorption from the resin for DR‐R and DV‐28 dyes was found to be approximately 89.4% and 91.7%, respectively. The experimental data were evaluated using different kinetics and isotherm models. These results show that the experimental data could be designated with the second‐order kinetic model and both Langmuir and Temkin isotherm models. Finally, the presented resin was able to remove large amounts of organic pollutants in a short process time with a low amount of adsorbent. Thus, it was shown that the prepared resin has high potential for use as an effective and sustainable adsorbent for the treatment of industrial wastewater. POLYM. ENG.

Diversity of Synthetic Dyes from Textile Industries, Discharge Impacts and Treatment Methods

“…These dyes are insoluble in water but stable under high-temperature exposure (Figure 1). The high-temperature dyeing solution is a mixture between the dyestuff powder and the dispersing agent [40][41][42].…”

Multifunctional amphoteric resin to remove both anionic and cationic dyes from aqueous solution

“…It has been reported by many researchers 21,41,42,56 that pH plays a crucial role in adsorption studies since the pH of the solution affects both the adsorbent surface charge density and the ionization of the adsorbate in the solution. The effect of pH on the adsorption of MB and RR‐120 dyes on MRES is given in Figure 7.…”

“…However, factors such as the high cost and the long time required, and the difficulty of regeneration are disadvantages for the use of activated carbon 40 . Thus, the need for alternative new adsorbents containing different functional groups with low cost and good adsorptive properties 41–47 is becoming more and more important due to the increasing pollution industrial originated.…”

Functionalization of polymers and nanomaterials for water treatment, food packaging, textile and biomedical applications: a review

“…Reprinted with permission from John Wiley and Sons (Bayramoglu et al 2020), Copyright 2020 led to the development of many polymer nanoparticles packaging materials. Among these, the first reported materials found in the literature, which emerged in the market as better materials, were the clay nanoparticles incorporated in the polymer matrix.…”
