Uptake of cesium, strontium and europium by a poly(sodium acrylate-acrylic acid) hydrogel

Selective absorption of water from different oil-water emulsions with Psy-cl-poly(AAm) synthesized using irradiation copolymerization method

“…The use of these modified products is finding widened applications in various industries. Controlled drug delivery devices (Zou et al 2005), removal of hazardous metal ions (Rifi et al 1995;Ciesielski and Tomasik 2003) from industrial effluents and great potential as flocculent (Yan et al 2004;Pal et al 2006) are some of the highlighted uses. Removal of water from petroleum products during the refining process in oil industries is one of the major problems.…”

“High-Throughput” Evaluation of Polymer-Supported Triazolic Appendages for Metallic Cations Extraction

“…The long time known ion-exchange resins can be used for this purpose [1][2][3]. Usually, the polymers are engineered is such a way that their nature can be hydrophilic [4][5][6][7] or phobic [8,9], to meet the requirements for their use [10][11][12][13][14]. Many polymers have been designed in order to include chelatants to fix metal ions to be used in applications such as purification, depollution or catalysis [15][16][17][18][19][20].…”

Uptake of Basic Blue 17 from aqueous solutions by using chemically crosslinked polyelectrolyte AAm/AASS hydrogels

“…Adsorption or ion exchange using different polymeric materials and synthetic resins is the method of choice in much wastewater treatment process for removing dyes from chemical process industries in certain developed countries. Studies have been reported on the use of hydrogels or hydrophilic characteristic crosslinked polymers or copolymers as adsorbents for the removal of heavy metals, for the recovery of dyes, for removal of toxic or radioactive elements from various effluents and for metal preconcentration for environmental sample analysis from aqueous solutions (Rifi et al, 1995;Li et al, 2002;Manju et al, 2002;Ekici et al, 2003;Wang et al, 2005).…”
