T. Shinohara et al., Synthesis of novel type resin based on calix[4]arene carboxylate and selective separation of lead from zinc, CHEM LETT, (6), 2000, pp. 640-641
A novel type of resin derived from calix[4]arene carboxylate was synthesize
d and adsorption behavior for lead(II), zinc(II), copper(II), nickel(II), a
nd cobalt(II) was investigated. Further, column separation of lead(II) from
zinc(II) was also carried out. Adsorption equilibria of metal ions showed
following order of selectivity series among metal ions: Pb(II) >> Cu(II) >
Zn(II) > Co(II) = Ni(II). Separation of lead and zinc using the packed colu
mn was sufficiently achieved.
