Adsorption of anionic dyes onto natural, thermally and chemically modified smectite clays

2014

Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the adsorption capacity of the smectite clays (from the overburden of the lignite deposit in Belchatow) for two anionic dyes, i.e. Reactive Blue 81 (RB-81) and Direct Blue 74 (DB-74). Additionally, the influence of the thermal and chemical (acid and alkali) clay modifications on the amount of bonded dyes was investigated. The adsorption capacity of the clay (natural and modified) was different for studied dyes and depended on the initial concentration and modification type. All the modified clays adsorbed the dyes at pH>pHPZC as the negatively charged surfaces of their particles (in accordance with the formula: AOH ↔ AO- + H+) prevented the…

A combined computational and experimental study on the mild steel corrosion inhibition in hydrochloric acid by new multifunctional phosphonic acid co…

2020

Two triazole derivatives with phosphonic acid as pendent group, namely [3-(4-phenyl-[1–3]triazol-1-yl)-propyl]-phosphonicaciddiethylester (PTP) and [3-[4-(4-dimethylamino-phenyl)-[1–3]triazol-1-yl]-propyl]-phosphonic acid diethylester (DMPTP) were synthesized and fully characterized using NMR spectroscopy, Mass spectrometry, Infra-Red (FT-IR) spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The synthesized multifunctional heterocycles were investigated to inhibit the corrosion of mild steel in acidic solution HCl (1 M) by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) and weight loss measurements. The results of the different corrosion measurement techniques are in goo…

Role of Electrical Charges on the Adsorption of Hydrogen: Something Old, Something New.

2022

The adsorption of H2 in zeolites by molecular simulations use, in many applications, single sphere model. Although this representation provides coherent results with ex- periments above 77K, below this temperature the usual hydrogen representation fails to reproduce experimental results. The disagreement can be associated to the interplay of the atomistic heterogeneity and the electric field produced by the zeolite faujasite. These aspects are generally excluded in classical force fields. For elucidating the influ- ence of these issues, we performed DFT simulations for the faujasite Na86X at 40K with and without guest hydrogen molecules for determining the electrical field generated by the …

TCE adsorption on hydrophobic Y and MFI zeolites. Possibilities of using such materials for solvent recovery

1996

Des isothermes d'adsorption de la vapeur d'eau et du tetrachloroethene (TCE) ont ete tracees a 25°C pour etudier le caractere hydrophobe et organophile et la porosite de faujasites Y et d'une zeolithe ZSM-5 desaluminees. Les quantites de solvant adsorbe en phase vapeur pure ou en atmosphere ambiante sont peu differentes du fait du caractere hydrophobe des echantillons. Ces derniers presentent une grande capacite d'adsorption vis-a-vis du TCE. Contrairement au charbon actif, une zeolithe Y desaluminee saturee avec du TCE peut etre totalement regeneree a basse temperature (T<100°C) et de ce fait son utilisation potentielle pour une recuperation propre des solvants est digne d'interet.

Design d'un iprodione-MIP (molecularly imprinted polymer) : application à la pré-concentration des fongicides dans le vin

2014

The aim of this study was the synthesis of a MIP (molecularly imprinted polymer) specific for a fungicide that is found in the majority of the french wine: iprodione. The challenge for extracting iprodione from wine medium was that the hydoralcoholic solution is a dipolar solvent, whereas the interaction between the MIP and iprodione is based on dipolar interactions. The first extraction study of iprodione was made on a MIP synthesized by bulk polymerization using methacrylamide and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA). The MIP was found to be more efficient than the NIP (non-imprinted polymer) in hydroalcoholic solutions which demonstrates that the molecular imprinting was successful. Th…

Adsorption isotherms and thermal behavior of hybrids based on quercetin and inorganic fillers

2019

We investigated the adsorption process of quercetin onto several inorganic fillers, such as kaolinite, calcium carbonate and alumina. Firstly, we performed equilibrium adsorption studies in order to determine the quercetin/filler adsorption isotherms, which were successfully fitted through the Langmuir model. Based on the adsorption data analysis, we estimated the maximum adsorption capacity of each filler as well as the Langmuir constant, which is related to the affinity between quercetin and the surfaces of the inorganic particles. Then, we prepared hybrids formed by fillers saturated with quercetin. The obtained composites were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis with the aim of …

Water pollution by heavy metal ions has become a serious environmental issue especially due to their toxicity and tendency to bioaccumulation. Natural smectite clay was treated using sulfuric acid ...

Protein Adsorption Hysteresis and Transient States of Fibrinogen and BMP-2 as Model Mechanisms for Proteome-Binding to Implants

2020

Abstract Protein adsorption studies returned to the focus of medical therapeutics, when it was found that up to 2500 non-plasma proteins adsorbed to hip implants during arthroplastic surgery, challenging peri-implant healing models. Questions have re-emerged as to the implications of uncontrolled protein unfolding after adsorption. In past studies on the cooperativity of protein binding we discovered protein adsorption hysteresis, a thermodynamically irreversible process. The present precursory study comprises real-time kinetic (TIRF-Rheometry) and equilibrium (125I-tracer ) studies on the hysteretic binding of fibrinogen and rhBMP-2 to titanium and glass surfaces via transient states. Ther…

Effect of solute association on the apparent adsorption isotherm. A model of the separation of non-racemic mixtures of enantiomers in achiral chromat…

1996

This article discusses the effect of solute association on the apparent adsorption isotherm and on the chromatographic peak profile. The modelling performed has shown that dimerization of a solute in a chromatographic system gives rise to an apparent adsorption isotherm of the non-linear type. This results first of all in peak broadening. Tailing or a fronting can be observed depending on the relative retention of the monomer and the dimer. Secondly, the retention of the solute depends on the amount of sample because of the non-linear character of the adsorption isotherm. As a result, an excess of one of two analytes with absolutely identical adsorption properties i.e. optical isomers, can …
