Mechanism of Cu(II), Cd(II) and Pb(II) ions sorption from aqueous solutions by macroporous poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate)

Selective magnetic GMA based potential sorbents for molybdenum and rhenium sorption

“…The peaks of both samples in the C1s core-level spectrum ( Fig. 16(a) and Fig.16(b)) were fitted into two components at 284.7 and 286.8 eV corresponding to C-C and C-O/C-NH x , respectively [47,48]. It was observed that the intensity of C-O/C-NH x location of the peak had a shift to 286.6 eV, which indicates that C-NH x is involved in the sorption of metal ions onto the adsorbent.…”

Glycidyl Methacrylate-ethylene Glycol Dimethacrylate Copolymers with Varied Pore Structures Prepared with Different Reaction Parameters

“…Copolymers based on glycidyl methacrylate (2,3-epoxypropyl methacrylate) (GMA) can be an important alternative to substitute Sty-DVB copolymers [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] . The presence of epoxide groups in the polymeric matrix of GMA copolymers makes their functionalization easier, because the epoxide groups are very reactive 6 .…”

Synthesis of well-defined epoxy-functional spherical nanoparticles by RAFT aqueous emulsion polymerization

“…5 Direct thiolation, bromination, iodination and phosphorylation of PGlyMA-based triblock copolymers has also been reported, although reaction times of up to 24 h were often required. 6 Potential applications suggested for such derivatized GlyMA-based copolymers include gene and drug delivery, 7 biocatalysis, 8 cell imaging, 9 inkjet printing, 10 chromatographic media, 11 denitrogenation of petroleum feedstock, 12 heavy metal absorbents 13,14 and pressure-sensitive adhesives. 15 GlyMA has also been utilized as a comonomer to prepare various types of epoxy-functional polymer colloids such as latexes, 16,17 microspheres, [18][19][20] anisotropic particles 21 and microgels.…”
