RESEARCH INTO SORPTION CONDITIONS OF 2-(4-SULFOPHENYLAZO)-1-AMINO-8-HYDROXYNAPHTHALENE-3,6-DISULFONIC ACID BY COMMERCIAL ANION EXCHANGER AB-17

Abstract

To obtain a new modified sorbent, the conditions for maximum sorption of the chelate reagent 2-(4-sulfophenylazo)-1-amino-8-hydroxynaphthalene-3,6-disulfonic acid (SPAAHS) by a strongly basic AB-17 anion exchanger were selected. The conditions for modifying the anion exchanger were studied by spectrophotometric analysis on a Specord 210 Plus spectrophotometer from Analytik Jena. The influence of such factors as the acidity of the solution, the contact time of the sorbent with the sorbate, and the concentration of SPAAHS on the sorption process was analyzed. According to the saturation curves, the static capacity of the anion exchange resin for the sorbed reagent was established. Also, the description of the adsorption isotherm of SPAAHS with the AB-17 anion exchanger was performed using the models of Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Redlich-Peterson. To calculate the value of the ABerage free energy of adsorption, the adsorption isotherm of SPAAHS with the AB-17 anion exchanger was processed using the Dubinin-Radushkevich model. On the basis of the results obtained, conclusions were made about the nature of the bond between the anion exchanger and the sorbed reagent. To prove the proposed mechanism of sorption of SPAAHS by the AB-17 anion exchanger by the density of functional theory (DFT) method, using the Orca 4.2.0 program, an estimated quantum-chemical calculation of the dissociation energies of various acidic functional groups according to which an exchange reaction is possible on the anion exchanger AB-17.
