Adsorption capacities of uranyl ions using crosslinked acrylamidoxime acrylic acid (Am/AA) resins composed from acrylonitrile (AN), acrylic acid (AA), having different molar ratios were determined. The AN/AA molar ratios were 80/20, 50/50 crosslinked with 10% N,N 0 -methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) and divinylbenzene (DVB). Polymerization was occurred in the presence of potassium persulfate and sodium metabisulfite as redox initiator. Reaction of synthesized resins with hydroxyl amine in basic media yield polyacryl acrylamidoxime acrylic acid (Am/ AA). The chemical structure of the AN/AA and Am/AA resins, before and after loaded with uranyl ions and after elution, was confirmed by FTIR analysis. The effect of UO 2þ 2 ions sorption on the morphologies of the prepared resins was examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Effects of pH, time of loading, type of acid, molar ratio, and type of crosslinker were investigated. Elution of adsorbed ions on resins was investigated by different eluents. The elution efficiency was determined.
