Sorption behavior of resins based on 4-vinylpyridine and N,N'-dimethylacryl
amide and 2-acrylamidoglycolic acid as comonomers, compared with the crossl
inked homopolymers, towards Hg(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), Pb(II), and Cr(III) was
studied at different pHs depending on the metal ion. Some resins show that
from pH = 1.0 or 2.0 Hg(II), Cr(III), and Cd(II) were sorbed significative
ly from an aqueous solution of 1.0 gn. Hg(II) and Cr(III) were eluted signi
ficatively in acidic media.
