This paper reviews the results obtained by studying Surface Impregnate
d Sulfonate Ion Exchangers (SISIE) obtained by modification of macropo
rous or gel polysterene-divinylbenzene polymers with toluene solutions
of dinonylnaphthalene sulfonic acids. Capacities of SISIE of the firs
t type are directly proportional to the concentration of the modifying
solution and to the specific surface area of the matrix. Capacities o
f gel SISIE are much less than those of macroporous samples and depend
on the crosslinking of the matrix. Stabilization of SISIE capacity an
d improvement of their kinetic properties can be achieved using ''wet
drying'' technique. Successive impregnation of the same SISIE sample m
ay be used to increase the capacity of the resin. The ion-exchange pro
perties of SISIE are mainly determined by their micellar structure whi
ch also defines the areas of possible applications of these ion-exchan
ge materials such as, e.g. ion chromatography and some others. Several
models have been successfully applied to describe the features of ion
exchange processes on SISIE. Application of SISIE as convenient model
systems to study aminecarboxylate interaction of amino acid molecules
is illustrated by suspension effects measured in SISIE-zwitterlyte an
d STSTE-HCl suspensions and by the results obtained by the laser-acous
tic study of these systems.
