Synthesis, Characterization and Ion-exchanging Properties of Novel Ion-exchange Resin Part-iii

The polyamine (PA) was prepared by condensation of 1,4-bischloromethyl benzene and benzidine. The PA was then treated with cyanuric chloride at 0°C followed by reaction with 5-amino-8-Hydroxyquinoline in THF in conc. NaOH (PH 9-10) at room temperature for 8 hrs. The resultant polymer designated as polyamine-s-triazine-5-amino8-Hydroxyquinoline (PATHQ) was characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectral studies, and thermogravimetry. The PATHQ sample was monitored for its chelating and ion-exchanging properties. The polymeric metal chelates of PATHQ with Cu 2+ , Zn 2+ , Mn 2+ , Ni 2+ , UO2 2+ and Co 2+ metal ions were prepared and characterised by metal:ligand ratio, IR and reflectance studies, magnetic properties, thermogravimetry and microbicidal activity. Batch equilibration method has been adopted, for evalution of ion-exchange properties.
