Pre-irradiation grafting of acrylonitrile onto chitin for adsorption of arsenic in water

http://repository.vnu.edu.vn/handle/VNU_123/32256

Radiation-induced grafting is an effective technique for preparation of novel materials. In this study, partially deacetylated chitin with deacetylation degree (DDA) of about 40% was graft-copolymerized with acrylonitrile (AN) by a gamma-ray pre-irradiation method.


The maximal grafting degree of AN onto pre-irradiated chitin at 25 +/- 1.2 kGy was 114% for AN concentration in dimethylformamide of 40% (v/v) at 70 degrees C for 8 h.
The mixture ratio of 0.1 N NH2OH center dot HCl to 0.1 N NaOH was selected to be 7:3 (v/v) for amidoxime conversion of cyano-groups on grafted chitin (Chi-g-AN).
The characteristics of modified chitin were depicted by the FT-IR spectra, BET area and SEM images. Adsorption equilibrium of As(III) onto Chi-g-AN converted amidoxime (Chi-g-AN-C) fits with the Langmuir model and the maximal adsorption capacity was 19.724 mg/g.
The break-through times of As(III) on Chi-g-AN-C in column adsorption experiments increased with the increase in bed depths.

The maximal grafting degree of AN onto pre-irradiated chitin at 25 +/- 1.2 kGy was 114% for AN concentration in dimethylformamide of 40% (v/v) at 70 degrees C for 8 h.
