Abstract

The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges

between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble bodies.

Thompson and Way in 1850 laid the foundation of ion exchange by Base

Exchange in soil. Adam and Holms discovered in 1935 that crushed

phonograph records exhibit ion exchange properties. This led researchers to

develop synthetic ion exchange resin. Organic resins, which have been used

for long time for ion exchange column chromatography, have high

mechanical and chemical stability. However they are decomposed at elevated

temperature and in the presence of strong radiations .The typical structure of

inorganic ion exchangers frequently permits separation of metal ions on the

basis of their different size. They can also be used as ionic or molecular

sieves. Furthermore the synthesis of such ion exchangers involves simple

procedures. A cation exchange resin is a high molecular weight cross linked

polymer having sulphonic, carboxylic, phenolic groups etc as an integral part

of the resin and an equivalent amount of cations to maintain the electro

neutrality .An anion exchange resin, on the other hand is a polymer containing

an amine or quaternary ammonium groups as an integral part of the polymer

lattice and an equivalent amount of anions such as chloride, hydroxyl or

sulphate ions. The first polymerization type of organic ion exchange resin was

prepared by D. Alelio in 1945. Since then these organic ion exchangers have

been used both in laboratories and in industries for the separation and

preconcentration of metal ions, recovery of metals, removal of permanent

hardness of water, demineralization of water, concentration of electrolytes and

elucidating the mechanism of reactions.

The use of chelating resins for the removal and separation of traces of metal

ions from industrial wastes is of great interest owing to simplicity, elegance

and a wide range of variations in methodology. Moreover they often exhibit

selectivity towards certain metal ions or groups of ions. The aromatic

complexing agents containing the sulphonic acid group are particularly useful

for the separation of metal ions on an anion excliange resin. The selectivity of

these modified resins depends on the nature of the functional analytical

groups of the ligand.

Chromatography is a method of analysis in which the How of solvent or gas

promotes the separation of substances by differential migration from a narrow

initial zone in a porous sorptive medium. Michael Tswett discovered the

principle of chromatography and their wide applicability in 1906,which

applied this technique for the separation of chlorophyll pigments using finely

divided calcium carbonate as an adsorbent.

Ion exchange chromatography was the first of the various liquid

chromatographic method used under modern LC conditions. Partition

chromatography is the second major innovation in the field of

chromatography. Reversed phase paper chromatography (applicable for

substances sparingly soluble in water) in which paper is impregnated with a

hydrophobic substances and the aqueous phase becomes the moving phase

was described by Kritchersky and Tiselius.

Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is considered to be the most simple, rapid,

versatile and low cost method which is applicable to the characterization and

separation of variety of multicomponent mixtures (both ionic and non-ionic)

except those which are volatile or reactive substances .TLC was first reported

by Izmailov and Shraiber in 1938 who utilized thin layers of alumina on glass

plates for the separation of plant extracts. Attempts were made using

adsorption chromatography on impregnated filter paper and later glass fiber

paper coated with silica acid or alumina. In TLC, a large number of coating

materials such as silica gel, alumina, Kieselguhr and cellulose have been

widely used as adsorbents.

Zirconium oxide was used for the first time by Zabin and Rollins. Zirconium

phosphate was used as a medium for thin layer chromatography of cations.

Separation of noble metals on stannic phosphate layers in ammonia -

hydrochloric acid-acetone-butanol -pyridine systems are reported. Nabi et al

have reported quantitative thin layer chromatographic separation of Uranium

from other metal ions on stannic sulphosalicylate layer. Analytical

applicability of heteropoly acid salts has been a recent trend.

Chapter 2 describes the modification of Amberlite IR-120, a strong acid

cation exchange resin by the sorption of dye; toludine blue .The effect of

time, pH, concentration of reagent on the adsorption of the dye has been

carried out. The maximum uptake of toluidine blue was found to be 2.58

jimole X IOVO.4 g resin at pH 6.0 .The interaction of toluidine blue with the

ion exchange resin may be through hydrogen bonding as represented by the

following structure:

NaOsS

SOsNa

Distribution coefficients (Kd) of important metal ions have been determined

in diverse solvent systems viz 0.05M Hydrochloric acid+O.lM Ammonium

Chloride (l:lv/v), O.IM Ammonium Chloride, O.IM Citric acid, O.IM Citric

Sr " , Pb^ , Cd " and Zn " . The analytical importance of this modified resin has

been explored in the separation of Zn " , Mg^ , Mn"' and Cu^^ contents of a

pharmaceutical preparation (Zincovit, a multivitamin capsule).

Chapter 3 gives an account of two new inorganic ion exchangers, Stannic

Selenoiodate and Stannic Selenosilicate synthesized under identical

conditions; their thermal and chemical stabilities have been examined. The

ion exchange capacities of stannic selenoiodate and stannic selenosilicate for

K' was found to be 1.84 and 1.23 meq/g respectively. To establish the

structure of the materials, chemical analysis, TGA, DTA, DSC, FTIR X-ray

and SEM studies have been performed. The X-ray diffraction study suggests

semi crystalline nature of Stannic selenoiodate with an intense peak at 26-

28°29 while its scanning electron microscopy shows spherical morphology.

This also indicates the absence of impure phases. The pH titration studies

revealed monofunctional and bifunctional behavior for stannic selenosilicate

and stannic selenoiodate respectively. Distribution coefficients of the metal

ions have been studied in a number of solvent systems namely O.IM DMF,

O.lMHCl, O.lMDMF+O.lMHCl (l:3v/v), O.lMDMF+O.lMHCl (l:4v/v),

O.IMDMF+O.IMHCI (2.iv/v), O.IM Formamaide, O.IM Formamide+O.IM

Ag" have been perfonned. The material also utilized in the quantitative

separation and determination of metal ions in electroplating waste sample.

In chapter 4 a new phase of inorganic ion exchanger, Stannic Arsenate has

been synthesized by mixing 0.2M solution of Stannic Chloride pentahydrate

with 0.4M Sodium Arsenate in the volume ratio 3:1 at pH 0.4. The

reproducibility of the material has been checked in terms of ion exchange

capacity and chemical composition. The ion exchange capacity for Ba " was

found to be 2.73-meq/g dry exchanger. In order to characterize the material,

Chemical and thermal stabilities, Chemical Composition, pH titrations, FTIR,

TGA, DSC and X-ray studies of the material have been performed. The X-ray

diffraction study of the material reveals a semi crystalline nature with

intermittent peaks of weak intensities. The material was utilized in the thin

layer chromatographic separations of metal ions in solvents having varying

polarity viz. acetone, acetic anhydride, ethanol, methanol, nitrobenzene,

nitromethane, acetonitrile, N, N, dimethyl formamide and formamide and also

in mixed systems; DMSO-HCl and DMSO-HNO3. On the basis of Rf,

analytically important quantitative binary and ternary separations of metal

ions have been achieved on stannic arsenate cellulose layer. The analytical

potential of this material has been exploited by separating and determining of

metal ions in glass industry waste.

Finally chapter 5 presents the synthesis of a new phase of stannic

silicomolybdate at pH 0.63 .The experimental parameters like order of mixing,

mixing volume ratio, pH, stirring time, drying temperature has been

established for the synthesis of the material. The ion exchange capacity for

Ca"*" has been improved from 0.53 to 1.73 meq/g for this newly synthesized

material. The reproducibility of the product formed has been checked. The

exchanger was characterized on the basis of chemical composition, thermal

(fechemical stability, FTIR, TGA, DSC, X-ray and SEM analysis .The

scanning electron microscopy of the material shows regular diamond shape

morphology. The presence of uniform morphology also indicates the absence

of impure phases. The X-ray diffraction study shows amorphous nature.

Distribution coefficients studies of the metal ions on this material were

performed in solvents having different acid dissociation constants namely

trichloroacetic acid, formic acid and acetic acid. The effect of dielectric

constants of solvents has also been studied by using dimethylsulfoxide; formic

acid, acetic acid& tricholroacetic acid .The effect of temperature on the

distribution coefficient has been explored. It was finally concluded that 45°C

appears to be the most favourable temperature. Important quantitative

Ion Exchange

The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange of ions of Hke charges

between the solutions and generally solids, which are highly insoluble body. The

solids, which contain the ion of their own for the exchange to take place rapidly

with electrolyte solution, are called ion-exchangers. For practical value the solid

has an open, permeable molecular structure so that ions and solvent molecules

can move freely in and out.

Ion exchange is basically a process of nature occurring throughout the ages from

even before the dawn of human civilization. So the process is mentioned in the

Holy Bible [1]. Aristotle stated that the seawater loses part of salt content when

filtered through certain types of soil [2]. The ion-exchange process could be

noted when wood cellulose convert bitter water into drinkable water, in the first

case and silicate which play the role for the improvement of taste of water in the

second case. Today ion exchange pervades many fields of human activity and its

ever-expanding uses bring man closer to his dream of comfort. Historically

speaking, ion exchange was not recognized till the middle of eighteen century,

when two papers by two different investigators working independently were

published, ironically in the same issue of same journal. So Thompson [3] and

Way [4] in 1850, laid the foundation of ion exchange by Base Exchange in the

soil. They observed that the calcium and magnesium ions of certain types of soil

could be exchanged for potassium and ammonium ions. Later Eichorn [5]

showed that the ion- exchange properties of solids arise from zeolites. The first

synthetic aluminium based ion exchanger was made by Harms and Rumpler [6]

in 1903. Gans [7] did the major work on ion exchangers in the field of industrial

production and technical applications. The first industrial product applicable for

technical purposes was sodium permutite, which was produced by fusing a

Page 18: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

mixture of clay minerals and alkalis. The first application of synthetic zeolite for

collection and separation of ammonia from urine was made by Folin and Bell [8].

Adam and Holms [9] discovered in 1935 that crushed phonograph records

exhibit ion-exchange properties. This led the researcher to develop synthetic ion-

exchange resin. These resins were developed and improved by companies in the

United States and England after World War II. Nearly all-current industrial and

laboratory applications of ion-exchangers are based on these resins. At the same

time, the synthesis of organic resins made it possible the properties of ion-

exchangers in systematic manner.

Organic resins which have been used for a long time for ion-exchange column

chromatography (lECC) have high mechanical and chemical stability. However,

they are decomposed at elevated temperature and under the presence of strong

radiations. It is due to these reasons there has been a revived interest in inorganic

ion-exchangers in recent years as they are unaffected by ionizing radiation and

are less sensitive to higher temperatures. The structure of these inorganic ion-

exchangers are more selective and suitable for separations of ions on the basis of

their different size. They can also be used as ionic or molecular sieves.

Furthermore, the synthesis of such ion-exchangers involves simple procedures.

Kraus et al. [10,11] at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and C.B. Amphlett [12,13]

in United Kingdom did the excellent work on these materials at the initial stages.

The work upto 1963 has been summarized by Amphlett [14] in his classical book

"Inorganic Ion Exchangers". The later work upto 1970 has been condensed by

Pekarek and Vasely [15]. Clearfield [16,17], Alberti; [18,19] and Walton [20-23]

have also worked on different aspects of synthetic inorganic ion-exchangers. In

India Qureshi and co-workers have prepared a large number of such inorganic

materials and studied their ion-exchange behavior.

Page 19: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

Characterization of Ion-Exchange Process

An important feature differentiating the ion-exchangers from other type of gel is

the presence of ionogenic groups. The ionogenic groups are attached to slceleton

either directly or by means of another groups (composed group). The process of

ion exchange is most typical interaction between the ions in the solution and

takes place on these ionogenic groups. The exchange of ion between the ion-

exchangers and solution is a physiochemical process and has the following

properties.

1. The process takes place between like charges and is reversible.

2. The exchange reaction takes place on the basis of equivalency and in

accordance with the principle of electro neutrality.

Synthetic Inorganic Ion-Exchangers

The inorganic ion-exchangers have drawn considerable attention during the last

two decades due to increase in interest for analytical and industrial uses.

Inorganic ion-exchangers are a vast field for study and are materials of ever-high

selectivities. These materials were explored for their suitability for the treatment

of nuclear wastes solution and purification of water all over the world. The

analytical importance of synthetic inorganic ion-exchangers is now firmly

established. Synthetic inorganic ion-exchangers may classify into following five

categories;

1. Acidic salts of polyvalent metals

2. Oxides and hydrous oxides

3. Exchangers based on heteropolyacids

4. Insoluble ferrocyanides

5. Various insoluble materials

Page 20: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

Inorganic ion-exchangers of first category arc produced by mixing the acidic

oxides of the metals belonging to IV, V and VI groups of the periodic table. Acid

salts of quadrivalent metals are most studied group of this class. They are

extremely insoluble. The chemical compositions of these salts depend upon the

method of preparation. The well-known member of this class, which has been

known for the last one hundred years, is zirconium phosphate [24]. However it

has been used as an ion-exchanger much later [25]. It is highly selective for Cs

ion in acidic inedium. Cesium can be separated from almost all elements of

periodic table using zirconium phosphate [26]. The discovery of a crystalline

phase of zirconium phosphate in 1964 made it possible to explain its observed

ion-exchange behavior in structure terms [27,28]. It has also found applications

in areas such as hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell, desalination and artificial kidney

machines.

The oxide and hydrous oxides of some metals have also been the well-

established materials for ion-exchange purposes. Freshly precipitated trivalent

metal oxides are of particular interest. For example, hydrous ferric oxide and

ferric hydroxide readily adsorb alkaline earth cations according to the law of

mass action [29]. Other bivalent cations [30] were adsorbed above pll. in this

process, the alkali metals and alkaline earths are adsorbed on the surface and are

readily eluted while more highly charged cations Ce (III), Y (III), Pm (III), Ru

(IV) are sorbed in bulk and eluted only with difficulty [31]. The ion-exchangers

of this class shovv' an amphoteric behavior depending upon the pH of the solution.

The process can be described by the following equilibria [32].

A1(0H)2'' + OH- ^ A1(0H)3 ^ A10(0H)-2 + H"

Page 21: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

Hydrous zirconium oxide is typical representative of this class [33]. Hydrous

titanium oxide shows high selectivity for Cs" and can be used for the

preconcentration of uranium [34]. Hydrous cerium oxide [35], tin dioxide

[36,37], iron (III) oxide [38] and manganese dioxide [39,40] are useful for

cesium separation. Freshly precipitated magnesium oxide shows the scavenging

properties towjird fission products in solution [41-43]. Mixed sah can be

prepared in which a second cation of higher charge than the parent cation is

introduced into the structure. The resulting positive charge is balanced by the

presence of anions other than oxides and hydroxides. Example of such materials

include Zn (0H)2 in which Zn " is partly replaced by Al " and A1(0H)3

containing Si ^ Ti'* , or Zr'*'*' ,the general formulae Znn.iAIn(0H)2Xn and Al„.

iMn(0H)3Xn.i where M"*" is a tetravalent oxide and X is a monovalent anion.

Quadrivalent metal oxides are also commonly used as inorganic ion-exchangers

such as Sn02, SiOa, ThOi and Zr02. Actually these materials do not possess

simple oxide formula as given above unless they are ignited at a high

temperature. They are found to contain varying amounts of water, which is not

present as water of hydration since on heating it is lost continuously over a range

of temperatures. Consequently these oxides are usually described as hydrous

oxides. Inoue et al. [44-46] and A.K.et al [47-49] have done important work on

hydrous oxides.

Heteropolyacid salts can be used as inorganic ion-exchangers. A number of such

compounds have been prepared. This group of exchangers is derived from 12-

heteropolyacids of general formula Hn XYi204o.nH20 where X may be P, As, Si,

B or Ce and Y may be one of elements such as Mo, W or V. The heteropoly

compounds especially those of 12-molybdo compounds are quite strong

oxidizing agents. Insoluble ammonium salts of these acids have been applied in

some cases. The exchangers of this type are stable in moderately concentrated

acid. However they dissolve in the solution of alkali. The heteropolyacids exhibit

Page 22: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

high affinity to heavy alkali metals, thorium and silver. The sizes of univalent

ions of these elements are suitable for their retention in the crystal lull ice of

heteropolyacids. Ammonium molybdophosphate is very selective for large

monovalent cations in acidic condition [50]. Despite its high selectivity for

cesium, pH limits the use of ammonium molybdophosphate to acidic solutions

because dissolution of molybdenum from the framework occurs at pH>6 [51].

Buchwald and Thistlewaits first recognized that the addition of foreign ions into

ammonium molybdophosphate structure during precipitation occurred by a

potentially usefol cation exchange process. They showed the sorption of macro

quantities of K , Cs^ and if by ammonium molybdophosphate from acidic

nitrate media at room temperature. Much of the subsequent investigations of the

ion-exchange properties of these salts have been carried out in laboratories of

Van R. Smith, Robb and Jacobs and their co-workers [52-55].

Insoluble metal Ferro cyanides can also be used as inorganic ion-exchangers.

They are easily prepared and usually have high ion-exchange capacity. They are

also known as scavengers for alkali metals. They are useful in the separation of

radioactive wastes and fissionable materials [56] with less damage to radiation

than their organic counter parts. Ferro cyanide molybdate was studied by

Baetsley et al [57], who determine its structure by X-ray studies. They also used

molybdenum and tungsten Ferro cyanide for the separation of Cs-137 and Sr-90

from fission products in acidic medium. Large range of separation applications

have been reported for cobalt Ferro cyanides as well as for copper, zinc and

nickel Ferro cyanides [58,59]. A recent trend has been in the study of ion-

exchange properties of Ferro cyanides adsorbed on silica gel [60] or resin beads

[61]. They are reported to have reasonably good stability in acids and alkalis and

a higher selectivity for alkali metals especially Cs-137 as compared to the simple

salts. Amine based metals Fen'o cyanide have also received attention. They were

first introduced by Hahn and Clein [62], who prepared a cobalt amine Ferro

Page 23: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

cyanide. Later on Sn(ll) and Sn(lV) amine 1 'erro cyanides hiave also been

prepared in these laboratories.

Various insoluble ion-exchanging materials are also of interest. A large number

of such compounds have been prepared. These materials have been prepared by

precipitation from metal salt solution with Na2S or H2S. The ion exchange

properties of insoluble suphides (eg. Ag2S, SnS, CuS, PbS, FeS, NiS, AS2S3,

Sb2S3) have been investigated. The suphides are selective towards cations

forming insoluble sulphides, the exchange reaction occurs through metathetical

reactions in which the metal of sulphide is displaced by appropriate ion from the

solution. Quantitative adsorption of TI , Ni , Co , Mn , Cu and Pb have

been reported on ZnS , CdS, and PbS [63], uranium on PbS [64], separation of

Cu ^ from Zn " and Cd ^ on SnS [65] and noble metal on CuS [66,67]. Some of

the important two component ion exchangers with their composition, ion

exchange capacity and selectivity of metal ions have been reported in table 1.

Apart from the heteropolyacid salts many other substances like mixed sahs have

also been synthesized and studied in detail for ion-exchange properties. It has

been found that double sahs or mixed salts of some of the metal ions possess ion-

exchange properties different from that of simple salts. Usually they show

superiority over simple salts mainly in three aspects. They are more thermally

and chemically stable, secondly they are selective in nature and finally their ion-

exchange capacities are higher as compared to their simple salts. It is with this

view; attention has been given to synthesize and to investigate ion-exchange

properties of this class of ion-exchangers. Some mixed salts or double salts

prepared earlier have been reported in Table 2.

Characterization of Inorganic Ion-Exchanger

In order to characterize a new substance as an inorganic ion-exchanger, its utility

in various fields and its limitation, the following properties may be studies as per

given order of preferences.

1. Ion-exchange capacity

2. Chemical and thermal stabilities

3. Selectivity

4. Composition

5. Structural studies

6. Analytical applications

Uses of Inorganic Ion-Exchangers

Few important uses of inorganic ion-exchangers arc;

1. Separation of metal ions.

2. Separation of organic compounds.

3. Removal of air and water pollutants.

4. Preparation of ion selective electrodes.

5. The preparation of artificial kidney machines.

6. Preparation of fuel cells.

The organic ion-exchange resins are beads of highly polymerized cross-linked

organic materials containing a large number of acidic or basic groups. The

backbone is generally a styrene-divinylbenzne copolymer. Copolymers of acrylic

acid derivatives and divinyl benzene are also frequently used. For use with

biological, macromolecules, it is usual to introduce charge groups into cellulose

fibers. For several years, cross-linked dextrin (Sephadex) has also been used as

carrier material. A list of commercially available ion-exchange resins along with

their chromatographic applications is given in Table-3

A cation exchange resin is a high molecular weight crosslinkcd polymer having

sulphonic, carboxylic, phenolic group etc as an integral part of the resin and an

equivalent amount of cations.

A typical cation exchange reaction may be represented as:

nRS03"H^ + M'"" = (RS03),M '" nH^

Where, R is the resin matrix and M is the exchanging cation.

An anion exchange resin, on the other hand is a polymer containing an amine or

quaternary ammonium groups as an integral part of the polymer lattice and an

equivalent amotmt of anions such as chloride, hydroxy] or sulphate ions.

A typical anion-exchange reaction may be represented as:

nR^4* McaCr + X"" = (RNMej) X ^ nCF

Where, R is the resin and X is the exchanging anion.

The first polymerization type of organic ion-exchange resin was prepared by

D'Alelio [310] in 1945. Since then, these organic ion-exchangers have been used

both in laboratories and industries for the separation and preconcentration of

metal ions, recovery of metals, removal of permanent hardness of water,

demineralization of water concentration of electrolytes and elucidating the

mechanism of reactions [311]. Resins of strongly basic type having chlorine

atom are more resistant to oxidation than weakly basic resins of phenolic type

[312]. The organic resins are insoluble in all common solvents including

aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons.

The use of chelating resins for the removal and separation of traces of metal ions

from industrial wastes is of great interest due to the simplicity, elegance and a

greater range of variation of the method. Chelating ion-exchange resins show a

definite selectivity towards certain metal ions or a group of ions. The properties

of some resins bearing chelate forming groups and ion-exchange groups have

28

Page 45: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

been studied in detail. These resins are prepared by immobilization of chelating

agents on various support [313]. The aromatic complexing agents containing the

sulphonic acid group are particularly useful for the separation of metal ions on an

anion exchange resin. These compounds display high selectivity for anion

exchangers. The selectivity of these modified resins depends on the nature of the

functional analytical groups of the ligand. In recent years, various papers have

been published related to the study of modified resins in different fields of

separation science. A list of some important chelate ion-exchange resins with

their selectivity and chromatographic applications has been shown in Table-4.

The distribution coefficient (Kd) is of great value as a practical guide to the

separation procedures in chromatography. On the basis of distribution

coefficient, it is possible to predict the separation of one ion from the other. The

distribution coefficient of an ion (A) is given by the equation:

Amount of ion (A) present in the exchanger phase/g of exchanger Kd =

Amount of ion (A) present in the solution phase/ml of solution

The general use of distribution coefficient is made in elution technique for the

separation of metal ions. The rate at which ions move in ion-exchange

chromatography is directly proportional to their distribution coefficients.

Chromatography is a method of analysis in which the flow of solvent or gas

promotes the separation of substances by differential migration from a narrow

initial zone in a porous sorptive medium. Chromatography can be divided into

two major classes (i) gas chromatography and (ii) solution chromatography. The

latter may be further divided into paper chromatography, column

chromatography, thin Layer chromatography, ion-exchange chromatography and

electro chromatography.

The principle of chromatography and their wide applicability were discovered by

Michael Tswett in 1906 who applied this technique for the separation of

chlorophyll pigments using llnely divided calcium carbonate as an adsorbent

[314]. He also published a detailed monograph in 1910 [315]. Very little

chromatographic work was published between 1910 and 1931. In 1931, Richard

Kuhn and coworkers [316] resolved plant carotenes into several components.

Rimington and co-workers [317] worked out detailed technique for the

separation of porphyrins and bile pigments. M.L. Wolform and coworkers [318]

separated mixtures of sugars on adsorption columns, locating the sugar zones by

streaking the extruded columns with an alkaline permanganate reagent. Moore

and Stein [319, 320] have separated amino acids obtained by hydrolysis of

proteins first on starch columns and later on ion-exchange resin columns. The

importance of rigid standardization of technique, solvents and adsorbents has

been discussed by H.H. Strain [321] and by Brockinann and Schodder [322],

since the original discovery of adsorption chromatography. Three major

advances have been introduced viz. ion exchange chromatography, partition

chromatography and gas chromatography.

Ion-exchange chromatography was the first of various liquid chromatography

methods to be used under modem LC conditions and its application came into

existence in late 1960s [323]. Partition chromatography is the second major

innovation in the field of chromatography. Silica gel packed columns was used

as a support for a stationary phase by Martin and Synge [324], paper

chromatography, a form of partition chromatography in which strips or sheets of

filter paper are used as a support for the stationary phase was introduced by

Consden, Gorden and Martin [325]. They described two-dimensional systems

which are particularly useful where one solvent system is inadequate for the

resolution of all the components in a mixture. Reversed phase paper

chromatography (applicable for substances sparingly soluble in water), in which

34

Page 51: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

the paper is impregnated witli a hydrophobic substance and the aqueous phase

becomes the moving phase was described by Kritchevsl<y and Tiselius [326].

Because of its inherent simplicity and versatility, the low equipment cost and its

ability to handle micro quantities, paper chromatography became popular very

rapidly. Further advancements, both in theory and equipment lead to the

development of gas chromatography in 1952 by James and Martin [327, 328] for

which they got a Nobel Prize. This technique is particularly used for mixture of

gases or for volatile liquid and solids.

Liquid chromatography (LC) refers to any chromatographic technique in which

moving phase is a liquid. Modem liquid chromatography has been named high

performance or high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). In HPLC, closed

reusable columns are employed so that hundreds of individual separations can be

carried out on a given column in a matter of few minutes. The technique finds

it's beginning in late 1950s with the introduction of automated amino acid

analysis by Spackman, Stein and Moore [329]. Detection and quantitation were

achieved with continuous detectors of various kinds, which yield a final

chromatogram without intervention by the operator. The newest of all liquid

chromatographic methods is the size exclusion liquid chromatography or gel

permeation cliromatography. This separates molecules according to their

effective size in the mobile phase. The technique has been used for the separation

of high molecular weight species particularly those which are non-ionic. The

macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids are best separated by gel

permeation method. The technique uses either rigid or non-rigid column packing.

Rigid packing are required for high-pressure liquid chromatography while some

samples are better separated on non-rigid gels.

Among various chromatographic techniques discussed above, thin layer

chromatography (TLC) is considered to be most simple, rapid, versatile and low

cost method which is applicable to the characterization and separation of a

35

Page 52: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

variety of multicomponent mixtures (both ionic and non ionic) except those

which are volatile or reactive substances. The TLC technique has been applied

since years, in the analysis of organic and inorganic substances and to the

analysis of biological, pharmaceutical, and environmental samples [330-337].

An improved version of TLC called high performance thin layer chromatography

(HPTLC) has been introduced by Pretorius [338] in 1974, who described this

technique as high speed thin layer chromatography. It is based on electro osmotic

flow and has been used frequently for the separation and determination of a large

number of substances [339-344]. Izmailov reported thin layer chromatography

first of all and Shraiber in 1938 who utilized thin layers of alumina on glass

plates for the separation of plant extracts [345]. The attempts were made using

adsorption chromatography on impregnated filter paper and later glass fiber

paper coated with silicic acid or alumina. Kirchnar [346] in 1950 was one of the

first to do this and was able to separate and identify terpenes. The technique

received due attention only in 1958 as a resuh of pioneering work of E. Stahl

[347] who was mainly responsible for developing a standard method for thin

layer chromatography. Thin layer chromatography closely resembles to those of

column and paper chromatography. In TLC, partition occurs on a layer of finally

divided adsorbent supported on a glass plate. The technique has certain

advantages over paper chromatography and gas chromatography e.g. resulting

separations are much better than in classical liquid chromatography and require

less time. It can handle several samples simultaneously and has a higher loading

capacity. Moreover, corrosive reagents and acids can be sprayed without any

adverse effect.

In TLC, a large number of coating materials such as silica gel, alumina,

kieselguhr and cellulose have been widely used as the adsorbents. Other

materials, which can be used as adsorbents in TLC include magnesium silicate,

calcium phosphate, activated charcoal, polyamide, silica gel-alumina (1:1),

36

Page 53: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

acetylated cellulose and hydrated ferric oxide. Alumina is preferred for the

separation of weakly polar compounds while silica gel is preferred for polar

compounds like sugars, amino acids etc. TLC recommends cellulose powder as

an adsorbent for the separation of cations even though the separations may be

slower than those obtained on silica gel.

Inorganic ion-exchangers in particle size of 40-80 |j.m have also been used as the

stationary phase in thin layer chromatography. For the preparation of the

stationary phase, slurr}' of ion-exchange material is prepared in water or alcohol,

usually with a binder such as gypsum or plaster of Paris. The slurry is dispersed

on the glass plates with the help of an applicator in the form of a thin film of 0.1-

0.3 mm uniform thickness. Sherma and Fried [348] in their review described the

analytical capabilities of synthetic inorganic ion-exchange materials in thin layer

chromatography. Adsorption and ion exchange occurs simultaneously resulting

better resolution of the separating species. Inorganic ion exchange materials that

have found their use in thin layer chromatography can be classified into

following four groups:

(1) Thin layers of hydrated oxides.

(2) Thin layers of insoluble metal salts of polybasic acids.

(3) Thin layers of metal Ferro cyanides.

(4) Thin layers of heteropoly acids.

Zirconium oxide was used for the first time by Zabin and Rollins [349] for the

separation of Ni "", Co^^ Pb^^ Fe^^ Ag^ Hg^^ Cd ^ and Cu^^ Berger [350] used

this material for the study of Ferro cyanide, ferricyanide, sulfocyanide, iodate,

borate and chlorate in concentrated acidic medium. The resolution of Bi from

ternary and quaternary synthetic mixtures was achieved by Sen and coworkers

[351] in combinations of O.IM HCl, O.IM HNO3, acetone and dioxane and

separated upto 20 fig of bismuth by this method. The same authors have also •J !

chromatographed some anions and separated Cr from other metal ions on

stannic oxide layers [352]. Cremer and Seidal [353] also studied the movement

of various anions on indium oxide plates.

Zirconium phosphate was used as a medium for thin layer chromatography of

cations by different workers like Zabin and Rollins [354], Keonig and Demiel

[355] and Alberti [356]. Separation of noble metals on stannic phosphate layers

in ammonia-hydrochloric acid and acetone-butanol-pyridine systems was

reported by Yin et.al. [357]. Qureshi and coworkers [358] prepared stannic

tungstate thin layers for the study of 15 binary metal ion mixtures and reported

the separation of gold from other cations. Chromatography of fifty-seven metal

ions on stannic arsenate layers was performed by Hussain and coworkers [359].

Qureshi et.al. [360] have also reported the separation of 20 binary metal ions on

non-refluxed stannic layers. They also achieved the separation of uranium from

48 metal ions on stannic antimonate layers [361]. Nabi et.al. [362] Have reported

quantitative thin layer chromatographic separation of uranium from other metal

ions on stannic sulphosalicylate layer using mixed dimethyl formamide systems

as mobile phase. De and coworkers [363] have isolated Au " from other cations

on thorium (IV) phosphate layers. Ammonium molybdate impregnated silica gel

has been utilized by Srivastava et.al [364] for thin layer chromatography of 32

synthetic dyes.

Fogg and Wood [365] prepared zinc Ferrocyanide layers and chromatographed

16 samples of sulfonamides in various concentrations of acetic acid. The same

material was used by Kawamura et.al [366] for the analysis of various

combinations of alkali metal ions in ammonium nitrate eluents and suggested

some useful separations on the same materials.

Analytical applicability of the heteropoly acid salts (double salts) has been a

recent trend. Alkali metals were chromatographed by Lesigang and coworkers

[367, 368] on thin plates of ammonium phosphodeca molybdate. arsenododeca

38

molybdate, germanododeca molybdate and oxinium and pyridinium

germanododeca molybadates in ammonium nitrate system. Lepri and Desideri

[369] have presented exhaustive explorations of ammonium molybdophosphate

and tungstophosphate layers for thin layer chromatographic separations of

aromatic amines. Kaletca and Koneeny [370] have utilized silica gel supported

ammonium phosphomolybdate layers for the separation of cesium. Srivastava

et.al [371, 372] have successfully separated metal ions and amino acids on thin

layers of pyridinium tungstoarsenate. Varshney and coworkers [373, 374]

performed separations of alkaline earths, transition metals and amino acids on

Tin (IV) arsenosilicate and Tin (IV) arsenophosphate layers in buffered ED'l'A

solutions.

The following pages summarize findings on the synthesis, characterization and

analytical application of inorganic ion exchange materials namely stannic

selenoiodate, stannic selenosilicate and stannic silicomolybdate. Studies on

Amberlite IR-120, a strong acid cation exchange resin modified with toludine

blue has also been done.

Iiitrodiiclioii

Now a day's attention has been paid for the removal of heavy metals from

industrial effluents and wastewaters. The focus is mainly due to increasing

environmental problems due to excessive and indiscrimale induslriali/.alion.

The potentiality of chelating ion exchange resins for the separation and

preconcentration of metal ions has been firmly established [1-6]. These

chelating ion exchange resins are prepared by incorporating of complexing

groups on the resins. The selectivity of these modified resins for metal

depends on the nature of functional groups of the complexing agents. New

poly(styrene-p-hydroxamic acid) have been synthesized and characterized,

and their physio -chemical properties have been determined. These polymers

are used as chelating ion exchange resins for the separation and determination

of rare earths lanthanum, cerium, neodymium and yttrium in synthetic,

standard and environmental studies [7].

Studies have also been reported on dye impregnated polystyrene resins and

dye coated cellulose for the chelating ion exchange [8]. The properties of

some resins, bearing chelate forming groups have been widely studied.

Dowexl-X8 containing sulphonated azo dyes [9] have been found to separate

copper and nickel. The recovery of mercury from wastewater utilizing a

chelating a chelating strong and weak base, containing imidoacetic acid and

thiol groups [10] is also reported. Nabi et al synthesized a variety of chelate

forming resins by incorporating complexing agents such as bromophenol blue

[11], Eriochrome Black-T [12], Congo red [13], Alizarin red [14] and crystal

violet [15]. Besides the separation of metal ions, chelating resins have also

shown other analytical applications such as adsorption of bile salts [16] and

decoloration of lactic acid [17]. The successful utility of these modified resins

have prompted us to start a search for a new chelate forming group for

differential selectivity towards metal ions

Experimental

Apparatus

Spectronic 1001 -spectrophotometer ,Elico digital pH meter model Li-IOT

and Electronic shaker with a temperature controlled body was used.

Reagents

Ambcrlite IR-120 (11" ) resin (mesh size 16-45,8% divinyl benzene by weight)

in hydrogen form was obtained from BDH (U.K), Toluidine blue from

E.Merck (Germany), Disodium salt of EDTA from S.D Fine chemicals

(India), ammonium chloride, citric acid, sodium citrate, formic acid, dimethyl

sulfoxide and tartaric acid (all AR grade).

1% ethanolic solutions of l-[l-hydroxy-2-napthol azo]-5-nitro-2-napthol-4-

sulfonic acid sodium salt (Eriochrome BlackT),l-[2-pyridyl azo]-2-

napthol(PAN) and 1% aqueous solution of o-cresolsulfonapthlein 3'-3'-bis

[methylUiminodiacetic acid sodium salt] (XylenolOrange) were used as

indicators and O.OIM solution of disodium salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic

acid (EDTA) was used as titrant. A list of metal ions investigated is given in

table 1.

Adsorption Stodies

Preparation of Modified Resin

The modified toluidine blue resin was prepared by treating 50g dried

Amberlite IR-120 (H" ) with 1 liter of 65ppm solution of toluidine blue for 24

hours at pH 6.0 with intermittent shaking (Fig.4). The excess reagent was

removed by washing the resin several times with demineralised water. The

treated resin was finally dried in an oven at 60°C.

Effect of Time

The equilibration time for the adsorption of toluidine blue by the resin was

established by performing a series of adsorption experiments at constant pH

6.0 at 25+2°C (pH was-i»edtfied by mean of an Elico Ll-IOT digital pH

meter). A constant mass (0.4g) of Amberlite IR-120 resin was stirred with an

aqueous solution of toluidine blue (40ml) for 1-6 hours. The amount of

toluidine blue adsorbed was determined spectrophotometrically at 625nm.

Effect ofpH

To determine the effect of pH on the adsorption of toluidine blue, 0.4g of

resin was shaken continuously with 40ml of 30ppm toluidine blue solution for

6 hours. The pH values of the solutions was adjusted by adding an appropriate

acid, base or buffer of the desired pH .The equilibrium concentration of the

reagent in the supernatant liquid was determined spectrophotometrically at

625nm.

Effect of Concentration of Reagent

To study the adsorption of toluidine blue under static conditions, 0.4g of resin

(I^) was equilibrated with 40ml of toluidine blue solulion at dilTcrcnt

concentrations (30-90) ppm in a temperature controlled electronic shaker-

incubator at constant pH-6 for 6 hours. The equilibrium concentration of the

reagent was then determined spectrophotometrically at 625nm.

Distribution coefficient (Kd) of metal ions

0.4g of modified resin beads were treated with 1 ml of metal ion solution and

39 ml of appropriate solvent in 250 ml Erlenmeyer flask. The list of solvent

systems used for the determination of Kd values is given in table 2. The

mixture time was shaken continuously in a shaker at 25+2°C for 6 hours .The

amount of cation in the solution before and after equilibration was determined

by using 0.0 IM EDTA as tirtant. Kd values for each metal ion was then

calculated by the formula

Quantitative Separation of Metal Ions

The separation of metal ions was carried by an elution technique. 1.5g of

modified resin was packed into a glass column of id 0.6 cm with a glass wool

support at the base. The column was washed 2-3 times with demineralized

water.2.0 ml of binary mixture of the metal ions to be separated was poured

on the top of the column and the solution was allowed to flow gently at the

rate of 4-8 drops / min till it reaches just above the resin surface. The column

was then rinsed with limited quantity of demineralized water and recycled.

The elution process was carried out at a constant flow rate of 8-10 drops /

minute using appropriate mobile phase (table 3). The eluted metal ion

fractions were determined titrimetrically using 0.0 IM disodium salt of EDTA

solution as titrant.

To demonstrate the practical utility of the material for selective separation of

metal ion, synthetic mixtures were prepared - Ca ' (0.240mg), Ba '* (0.40mg),

Sr '"(0.87mg), Pb^^(0.58mg), Cd^^(0.91mg) and Zn^^ (0.65mg) with varied

amount of Ag"* (5.19 mg, 6.48, 7.78mg) for selective separation of Ag" . The

recovery percentage has been calculated.

Determination of Metal Ions in Pharmaceutical Sample

One capsule or 5ml ofmultivilamin was treated with 10 ml oiXonc. IICI and

filtered, the clear solution thus obtained was diluted to 250ml with

deminerlized water (DMW). 1 ml of this solution was evaporated to dryness

and the residue was taken in 1 ml demincralised water.2.0 g of the ion

exchange material was loaded into a column having an internal diameter of

0.6 cm .The effluent was recycled through the column to ensure complete

adsorption of the metal ions .Zn" was eluted with a mixture of 0.1 NH4NO3

+0.1 M HN03(1:1 v/v), Mg^ by 0.4 M NH4NO3, Mn^^ by 0.1 M HCOOH and

Cu " was eluted by using O.IM DMSO as solvent. The rate of elution was

kept at 8-10 drops/minute and the metal content of the effluent was

determined by conventional EDTA titration.

Result and Discussions

The effects of equilibration time, pH and toluidine blue concentration on the

amount of the dye adsorbed by the resin are shown Figs. 1-3, respectively.

The maximum uptake of toluidine blue was found to be 2.58).i mole X 10 Vo.4

It is apparent from the distribution coefficient valves that tokiidine blue

modified cation exchange resin shows a differential selectivity for metal

ions. This may be due to the formation of metal complexes with different

stability. The ease of complexation will of course depend upon the reaction

medium. Toludine blue modified resin posses both the sulphonic groups to act

as ion exchange as well as chelate forming groups, which arc responsible for

the adsorption of metal ions. The bulky size of toludine blue molecule

increases its strength of interaction with the sorption matrix and enhances the

affinity of cation exchanger for toluidine blue and its complexes with the

metal ions. The Kd value for each metal ion in various solvent systems have

been calculated and presented in table 4.

Amberlite IR-120 sorbed toludine blue resin has been found promising for the

separation of metal ions due to differential affinity. Adsorption studies on

different metal ions in diverse solvent system reflects many interesting

features in Dimethyl sulfoxide-Nitric acid mixture (1:1 v/v) [S8]. All the

metal ions are poorly adsorbed with the exception of Zr"* .

On the other hand Zr'*' behaves in an exceptional manner by showing very

high Kd values in almost all the solvent systems studied viz ammonium

chloride -HCl mixture, citric acid sodium citrate, sodium citrate ,formic acid,

nitric acid, and tartaric acid. While very low Kd values were observed in

ammonium chloride and dimethyl sulfoxide medium (Table 4).

It is apparent from table 4 that the distribution coefficient values in pure

DMSO medium is higher for most of the metal ions as compared to values in

pure nitric acid medium with the exception of Zr"*" ion. This might be because

of a reduction in the strength of complexation ability of toluidine blue with

this metal in the presence of nitric acid medium. It is also interesting to note

from Kd values for most of the metal ions are exceptionally high in tartaric

acid and sodium citrate medium. This behavior of metal ions may be

attributed due to the formation of more stable complex with toluidine blue as

compared to metal tartarate or metal citrate complexes.

Two new inorganic ion exchangers, Stannic selenoiodate and Stannic

selonosilicate have been synthesized under identical conditions and their

thermal and chemical stabilities have been examined. The ion exchange

capacities of stannic selenoiodate and stannic selenosilicate for K^ was found

to be 1.84 and 1.23 meq/gm respectively. To establish the structure of the

materials, chemical analysis, TGA, DTA, DSC, FTIR, X-ray and SEM studies

have been performed. The X-ray analysis shows semi crystalline behavior for

stannic selenoiodate while amorphous in case of stannic silicosilicate. The

SEM analysis shows uniform globular morphology for stannic selenoiodate.

The presence of uniform morphology shows the absence of impure phases.

pll titration studies reveal monolunctional and bifunctional behavior for

sliinnic selenosilicate and stannic selenoiodate respectively. Uistributioii

coefficients of metal ions in DMF-HCL and Formamide-HCL systems have

been evaluated. Some important and analytically difficult quantitative binary

and ternary separations of metal ions have been achieved on stannic

selenoiodate columns. The practical utility of the material has been

demonstrated by analyzing metal ions in synthetic mixtures and in

electroplating waste.

Introduction

Today ion exchange technology is considered as an established analytical tool

for analysis of complex mixtures in diverse fields. The different types of

inorganic ion exchangers and their applications in various fields are

documented in a book by Clcarndd | 1 | . llt)vvcver, (he dcvclopmcnl of new

inorganic ion exchangers vvilh charactcrislic jiropcrdcs is slill needed

attention and their utility in diverse fields is yet to be explored. Amorphous

and crystalline forms of tetravalent metal acids salts, generally called single

salts with the general formula [M (IV) (HXO4) 2] nH20. Where M represents

Zr , Ti , Sn etc and X represents P, W, Si, Mo, Se, As, etc have been studied.

Stannic tungstate layers have been utilized for quantitative separation of gold

from other metal ions [2]. Silicates of tin were prepared and ion exchange

properties studied [3]. Synthetic isoflavones were separated chromato-

graphically on stannic molybdate papers [4]. Separations of amino acids were

performed on stannic tungstate [5]. Semi-crystalline layer of stannic tungstate

was utilized to study the movement of phenolic compounds in various solvent

systems [6].

Previous studies showed that mixed salts have better ion exchange capacity,

thermal and chemical stabilities as compared to single salts. These mixed salts

may have tetravalent metals such as Zr (IV), Sn (IV), Ti (IV) etc in

combination with any two anions from W, P, Mo, Si, V etc. These mixed salts

are called double salts. Tin (IV) molybdoarsenate, semi-ciystalline tin (IV)

selenophosphate, tin (IV), vanadoarsenate, tin (IV) vanadotungstate, tin (IV)

selenoarsenate, tin (IV) arsenosilicate, tin (IV) molybdosilicate and tin (IV)

tungstoselenate have been studied previously [7-14]. Apart from these,

zirconium [15-16] and titanium [17] based double salts have been synthesized

and their properties investigated. The paper chromatographic behavior of

some pesticides and toxins has been studied using stannic molybdosilicate

impregnated papers [18]. The present work has been stimulated by the

following considerations.

than their corresponding single salts.

2. Both the exchangers i.e. tin (IV) selenoiodate and tin (IV)

seienosilicatc have not been studied earlier.

3. Tin (IV) selenoiodate showing higher thermal and chemical stability

and enhanced ion exchange capacity has been chosen for detail studies.

Experimental

Reagents and chemicals

Stannic chloride pentahydrate (Loba chemie, India), potassium iodate (E.

Merck, India) sodium selenite (E. Merck, India), sodium meta silicate (CDH,

India). All other reagents and chemicals used were of Anal R grade.

Apparatus

Per kin Elmer FTIR spectrophotometer for IR analysis, a Philips Martin

Holland (Model PW 7030/10) for X-ray diffraction, Elico, India (EL-10) for

pH measurements, Spectronic 20 Genesis Spectrophotometer for absorbance

measurement. Per kin Elmer thermal analyzer (model pyris diamond) for

TGA DTA and DSC studies and Cambridge instruments (stereoscan

360,made in U.K) for scanning electron microscopy.

Syntheses

Tin (IV)- selenoiodate

This compound was prepared by adding a mixture of 0.3 M aqueous solutions

of potassium iodate and sodium selenite drop wise to 0.3M aqueous solution

of stannic chloride pentahydrate while stirring the mixture continuously in 1 .T

volume ratio. The pH (<1) of the resulting mixture was maintained by gradual

addition of IM HNO3. The resulting precipitate was digested in mother liquor

overnight. The liquid is separated from the precipitate by decantation. The

86

Page 105: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

precipitate was washed several times with deminerlized water; filtered and

washed again to remove reagents adhered with the precipitate under suction.

The final product was dried at 40+20°C in an electrically controlled oven. The

material was cracked into line particles when immersed in water. It was

converted into H" form by treating it with IM HNO3 solutions. It was

Iranslcrrcd in a column and washed with deminerlized water to remove excess

acid and finally dried in the oven at 40+2''C.

Tin (IV)- Selenosilicate

It was prepared by adding gradually a mixture of 0.3M aqueous solutions of

sodium selenite and sodium metasilicate into 0.3 M aqueous solution of

stannic chloride pentahydrate in the volume ratio of 1:1. The pH of the

resulting mixture was adjusted below 1, by adding IM HNO3 solution. The

subsequent steps were the same as described in earlier synthesis to obtain the

final product.

Ion Exchange Capacity

1.0 g (dry mass) of the material in H^ form was packed in glass column with a

glass wool support at the base. A 0.1 M NaNOs solufion was passed through

the column maintaining at flow rate 9-10 drops/min. The effluent containing

H" ions was carefully collected. The complete replacement of W^ from the ion

exchanger by Na" was checked. The collected effluent was titrated with a

standard NaOH solution. The ion exchange capacities of stannic selenoiodate

and stannic selenosilicate are reported in table 3.

pH Titration

Topp and Pepper method was utilized for pH titration using NaCl-NaOH,

KCl-KOH, CaCl2-Ca(OH)2 and BaCl2-Ba(OH)2 systems [19]. For this

purpose, a 0.5 g (dry mass) of ion exchanger in II"* form was treated with 50

ml of the concerned solution. pH titration curves are shown in figures 1 and 2.

87

Page 106: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

Chemical Stability

The chemical stabilities of stannic selenoiodate and stannic selenosilicate

were examined in mineral acids HCl, HNO3 and H2SO4 and bases NaOH and

KOH.

A 500 mg (dry mass) of each ion exchanger was treated with 50 ml of the

solvent of interest and kept for 24 h at (30+2°C). Tin, iodate, silica and

selenium contents of the solutions were determined using suitable

spectrophotometric methods [20-23].

Chemical Composition

The stiochiometry of the constituents in stannic selenoiodate and stannic

seleno silicate were determined. For this purpose 0.15 g (dry mass) of sample

was dissolved in 15 mL hot concentrated nitric acid. The solution was cooled

and diluted to 100 mL with demineralized water. The components of each

sample in the solution were estimated spectrophotometrically using standard

methods [20-23].

Thermal Stability

The effect of diying temperature on the ion exchange capacity was studied by

heating each material from 100-900*^0 for 1 h in a muffle furnace .The ion

exchange capacity of each product was determined and the results are

reported in figure 3.

IR Analysis

111 analysis of both the materials in ll ' form was performed separately. 10

mg (dry mass) of each material was taken and was then thoroughly mixed

with lOOmg (dry mass) of KBr and grounded to a very fine powder. A

transparent disc was formed by applying a pressure of 80,000 psi (1 psi

=6894.76 pa) in a moisture free atmosphere. The FTIR absorption spectra

88

Page 107: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

were recorded in the range 400 to 4000 cm''. The resuUs are given in figures 7

and 8.

Thermal Studies

A 15 mg (dry mass) each of stannic selenoiodate and stannic selenosilicate

was analyzed for TGA, DTA and DSC with sample holder made of AI2O3 in

N2 atmosphere. The heating rate and chart speed were maintained at lO C

/min and 20cm/h respectively. Alumina powder was used as reference

material. The DSC and TGA curves are shown in figures 4, Sand 6.

X-ray Analysis

For X ray diffraction analysis, powder method was employed with a

manganese fihered CuKa radiation (k =1.5418A) source. The instrument was

equipped with graphite monochromator operating at 40 KV and 30 mA. The

crystalline nature of stannic selenoiodate was ascertained by comparing the

intensity of different peaks with the most intense peak at (26-28* ) 29. The

study was done in the range 10 to 70 20 values while the speed of the recorder

was maintained at lOmm/sec 20. The X -ray diffraction pallcrns is sliown in

figure 9.

SEM analysis

Electron micrographs were recorded for stannic selenoiodate and stannic

selenosilicate by scanning electron microscope operating at 20.0 KV. The

details are shown in SEM photographs (figure 10).

Ion Exchange Equilibration Studies

In order to check the equilibration time for the ion exchange reaction, 0.5g

ion exchange material in H"*" was treated with 20 ml of O.IM potassium nitrate

solutions in a 100 ml conical flask. The mixture was then shaken for 1-6 h in

a shaker incubator at 30+2°C. The amount of metal ion adsorbed by the

exchanger in mcq/g was csliniatcd by (ilration of the siipcnialant lic|iii(l

against EDTA solution. The results are shown in figure 11.

Elution Profile for H^ Ion

250 ml solution of 0.1 M potassium nitrate was percolated through a glass

column containing l.Og of ion exchange material in H" form with a glass

wool support at the end. I'hc How rale of the erilueut collected was

maintained at 8-10 drops/min. The amount of H"* ions released in each 5 ml

fractions of the effluent was determined titrimetrically using a standard NaOH

solution. The results are shown in figure 12.

Distribution Studies

Distribution coefficients (Kd) for Ag^ Mn^^ Ni^^ Ca^^ Cd^^ Cu^^ Co^^

Pb "", Fe "", U^\ Cr^^ k?\ Th''^ Sn'*\ and Zr ^ were determined in

dimethylformamide, formamide, hydrochloric acid and mixed systems.

0.5g (dry mass) of stannic selenoiodate in H" form were put into 100ml

conical flasks each containing 50 mL .solution of 2x10"'' M concentration of

metal ion. The mixture was continuously shaken for 3h in a siiaker incubator

at 30+2°C. The amount of metal ion left in the solution was determined by

titration against disodium salt of ethylene diaminetetracetic acid using

standard procedure [24].

The Kd values were calculated using the following formula.

Amount of metal ion in the exchanger phase /g exchanger Kd=

Where I is the volume of EDTA used before Ireatmenl, f" is the volume of

EDTA used in the solution phase after treatment with the exchanger, I-F =

corresponding amount of metal ion in exchanger phase.

Separations

In order to demonstrate the separation potential of stannic selenoiodate in

column chromatography, a number of binary and ternary separations of metal

ions were practically achieved.

l.Og of stannic selenoiodate in H'*' form (50-lOOmesh) were packed in a glass

column of inner diameter 1.1 cm with a glass wool support at the end. A

mixture of metal ions solution to be separated was then poured into the

column. The solution was allowed to move through the column at the rate of

8-1 Odrops/min and recycled at least three times. The column was washed with

dimineralized water to rinse the sides of the column. The adsorbed metal ions

were then eluted with appropriate eluents. The flow rate of the effluent was

maintained at ImL/min throughout the elution process. The effluents WQXQ

collected in 10ml fractions and metal ions content was determined

titrimetrically against EDTA solution.

Several ternarj' separations of metal ions were also achieved in a similar

manner..

Selective separations of Ag^, Ni " , Co^\ Sn"* and Zr" from a mixture of other

metal ions were successfully achieved on columns of stannic selenoiodate

(Tables 7-11).

Separation and Determination of Metal Contents in Electroplating Waste

Sample preparation

5.0g of the waste material collected from the electroplating plant were

dissolved in 15ml of aqua regia. The mixture vv'as stirred thoroughly till a

clear solution was obtained. It was diluted to 100ml with dcmineralizcd water

91

Page 110: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

and was then used as a stock solution. The atomic absorption spectroscopic

analysis of the sample gave the following results Cu^^ (38.0pg/ml), Cr' "

(22.0)Lig/ml) and Ni^"^(14)ig/ml) respectively.

Methodology

Appropriate volumes ranging from 2.0 to 5.0 ml of the stock solution was

poured into a glass column packed with stannic selenoiodate having inner

diameter of 1.0 cm packed with stannic selenoiodate having bed height of

5.0cm with a glass wool support at the base. The solution was allowed to flow

through the column at a rate of 0.3-0.5ml/min. The effluent was recycled at

least three times. Finally the column was rinsed with demineralized water.

The sorbed metal ions were then eluted with O.IM DMF+O.lMHCl as eluting

reagent. The flow of the effluent was maintained at Iml/min through out the

elution process, The fractions of each metal ion collected were determined

titrimetrically using 0.0 IM disodium salt solution of EDTA.

Results and Discussion

Table 1 summarizes the synthesis of single sails; slannic iodalc, slaniiic

selenite, stannic silicate and corresponding double salts stannic selenoiodate

and stannic selenosilicate under identical conditions. It appears from the data

(Table 2) that double salts show superiority over their single salts in terms of

exchange capacity, thermal and chemical stability. It was therefore considered

worthwhile to concentrate our studies on double salts

It is evident from table 3 that stannic selenoiodate has higher ion exchange

capacity than stannic selenosilicate prepared under identical conditions (1.84

and 1.23 meq/g, respectively for K^). The affinity sequence for alkali metal

ions is K^>Na^>Li^ and for alkaline earth is Ba ''>Sr^^>Ca '">Mg^^ This

sequence is in accordance with the hydrated radii of the exchanging ions. 'I'he

ions with smaller hydrated radii easily enter the |)()res of the cxcliaiigcr,

resulting in higher adsorption [25]. Figures 1 and 2 show pH titration curves

for NaCl-NaOH, KCl-KOIl, CaCh-CiKOIl). and na(^lrl^a(OI I), syslcnis

revealed a mono functional ion exchange characteristic for stannic

selenosilicate and bifunctional for stannic selenoiodate. The pH titration

curves of stannic selenoiodate indicate thai at pi 1-6, the sequence ol' ion

exchange capacity was found to follow K" <Na" <Ca ^ while in the case of

stannic selenosilicate the ion exchange capacity trend was

Ba^^<Na''<K^<Ca^"'.

from the chemical treatment data (table 4), it can be concluded that stannic

seleno iodate is highly stable upto 1.0 M concentration of mineral acid

solutions. However, in alkalis it is fairly stable up to 0.1 M concentration

whereas stannic selenosilicate shows lesser chemical stability as compared to

stannic selenoiodate. Both the material was analyzed for its constituents. The

Sn: Se:Io3 ratio in stannic selenoiodate was found to be 3:1:2 and that in

stannic selenosilicate the Sn:Se:Si ratio was 3:2:3.

In order to observe the resistance towards heat, the materials were dried in

the temperature range 100-900*^0. It has been observed that stannic

selenoiodate experiences a sharp decrease in ion exchanger capacity as the

drying temperature is increased up to 500 "C and the capacity becomes almost

negligible after 700 C. Whereas in the case of stannic selenosilicate no

significant loss in ion exchange capacity is observed upto 500 'C (figure 3).

The pyrolysis curve (figure 4) of stannic selenoiodate shows a sharp

continuous loss in weight upto 100°C and is attributed to the elimination of

water molecules. After that a gradual loss in weight is observed which

continues uplo 424V is probiibiy cnuscd by Ihc viipori/iilioii of srk'iiiu-

group. On raising the temperature further a sharp decrease in weight is

rellected in the temperature region 424 to 750"C, as a result of decomposition

reaction of the material. Further loss in weight is almost negligible due to

formation of stannic oxide as the final product. These interpretations are also

supported by the appearance of two endothermic peaks in the DTA curve

The thermo grams of stannic sclenosilicate arc shown in figure 5. It can he

readily concluded that the first sharp weight loss occurs up to 100"C which

corresponds to loss of water molecules per mole of the material. Then gradual

decrease in weight up to 450°C occurs probably due to volatilization of

selenite group. Further loss in weight occurs on increasing the temperature is

caused by decomposition reaction of intermediate product leading to the

formation of residual oxide of tin as final product. The DSC curve (figure 6)

of stannic selenosilicate also shows two endothermic peaks and an exothermic

peak. The endothermic peaks with a maximum at 104.22"C and 392.42"C

correspond to dehydration reactions and decomposition of intermediate

product. The exothermic peak with maxima at 214°C supports the TGA

findings.

selenosilicate in H" form are shown in figures 7 and 8. The strong and broad

band for both the compound in the region 3500-3100cm'' may be assigned to

interstitial water molecules. Another strong and sharp peak with a maximum

at 1633cm" is due to HO-H- bending. The spectrum of stannic selenoiodate

shows a strong and a weak band at 723cm'', and 460cm'',respectively

indicates the presence of iodate and selenite groups |26]. The infrared

spectrum of stannic selenosilicate shows two bands in the region 1100-900

cm'' represent silicate groups while three week bands with a maxima at 714

cm'', 510 cm'' and 458 cm'' characteristic of oxides of selenium [26].

The X-ray diffraction patterns (figure 9) suggest semi crystalline nature of

stannic selenoiodate with an intense peak at (26-28") 20. On (he other hand

stannic selenosilicate shows amorphous behavior.

Scanning electron micrographic studies revealed irregular rod like structure

for stannic selenosilicate (figure 10b) and spherically regular shape for stannic

sclcnoiodate (figure 10a) On the basis of chemical composition, pll titration,

thermal and IR studies, the following tentative formula may be assigned to

stannic selenoiodate.

[(Sn02)3 (SeOj) ( H2lO-3)2]. nHzO (1)

If all the external water molecules are lost up to 100°C then the weight loss as

calculated from the 1"GA curve was 10%. The number of water molecules (n)

per mole of the material can be computed from Alberti equations [27].

X(M+18n) 18n =

100

Where X is the percent water contents and M+18 is the molecular weight of

the material. It gives the value of'n' ~ 3

The above formula can then be rewritten as

[( Sn02)3 ( Se03) (H2IO-3 )2] .3H2O (2)

Similarly a tentative formula for stannic selenosilicate can be suggested.

[(Sn02)3. (H2Se03)2. (1128103)3] .6II2O

The resuhs of ion exchange equibration studies revealed that stannic

selenoiodate requires shorter time (3h) for equilibration as compared to 4h in

the ease of stannic selenosilicate (figure 11).

Figure 12 shows the elution profile curves for hydrogen ions release for these

ion exchange materials. The release of hydrogen ions is faster in the case of

stannic selenoiodate (figure 12a) as compared to stannic selenosilicate

(figure 12b). The most of the H" ions are released within 100 ml of the effiuent

in both the cases.

In order to explore the separation potentiality of stannic selenoiodate,

dislribulion cocnicicnls of important niclal ions were determined in various

solvent systems. It has been observed that with gradual increase in

hydrochloric concentration in UMl'-llCI systems decreases the Kd valve for

most of the nietal ions studied (tableS) The similar behavior has been

observed in formamide-hydrochloric acid systems. This is an expected trend.

An increase in H' ions concentration in the equilibration mixture prevents the

uptake of exchanging ions from the solution phase. However Cr"' , Al' , and

Sn " shows exceptional behavior in these systems. In these cases the uptake

increases in the beginning reaching to the highest valve at composition

formamide: hydrochloric acid, 1:3.On further increasing the concentration of

hydrochloric acid, decreases the distribution coefficient values (table6). It can

be readily predicted from the data of Kd values that Ag" and Sn"*" can be

separated from the rest of the metal ions in O.IM DMF-HCl (1:1), systems

and formamide-HCl (1:3) systems. Very high Kd values of Co " and Ni ^

permit their separations from Mn^^ Cd^^ Pb^^ Cu^\ Fc^', Cr^^ La^\ 'fh"'

and Zr"* in DMF-HCl, (1:2) systems. On the other hand very high Kd value of

Zr in formamidc-llcl (1:4) is found lo be useful for its sclcclive separation

from the mixture of other metal ions studied. Based on the distribution

coefficient values several analytically important separations of binary and

ternary mixtures of metal ions have been actually achieved on small columns

of stannic selenoiodate (table 12and 13). Selective separation of Sn"* , Co" ,

Ni" , and Ag from a synthetic mixture of other metal ions have been

successfully performed. The results are shown in tables 7,8,9 10 andl 1. These

separations can be utilized in situations where one of these metal ions has to

be isolated from a natural or environmental samples containing metal ions as

impurities and subsequently determined .In certain instances interfering metal

ions can be conveniently eliminated prior to its determination. Stannic

selenoiodate was successfully utilized in the determination of Cu , Zn and

Cr' ' ions in real matrix i.e electroplating waste. Table 14 shows the separation

results.

Summary

A new phase of inorganic ion exchanger, stannic arsenate has been

synthesized by mixing 0.2M solution of stannic chloride pcntahydratc with

0.4M sodium arsenate solutions in the volume ratio 3:1 at pi I 0.40. The

reproducibility of the material has been checked. The ion exchange capacity

of the material for Ba was found to be 2.73 meq/g of dry exchanger. In order

to characterize the material, chemical & thermal stabilities, chemical

composition, pH titrations, FTIR, TGA, DSC and X-ray studies have been

performed. The exact chemical composition was found to Sn 0.28: As, 0.30

(mmoles). The use of this material for thin layer chromatography of metal

ions has been explored. On the basis of Rp values in solvents having varying

polarity viz. acetone, acetic anhydride, ethanol, methanol, nitrobenzene,

nitromethane, acetonitrile, N, N, dimethyl formamide and formamide and

mixed systems; DMSO-HCl and DMSO-HNO3, important binary and ternary

quantitative separations of metal ions have been achieved on stannic arsenate

cellulose layer. The practical utility of this material bas been demonstrated by

achieving separations and determinations of metal ions in glass industry

waste.

Introduction

It has been found that ion exchange resins suffer from two limitations. Firstly

they are damaged by high ionizing radiations and secondly they get

decomposed when used at elevated temperatures. The inorganic ion

exchangers have drawn considerable attention owing to their high thermal and

chemical stability [1]. In addition they often exhibit selectivity towards

certain metal ions. Inorganic ion exchangers are being used in diverse fields.

Some of the worth mentioning applications are: amorphous zirconium

phosphate as a sorbent in portable dialysis systems [2], separation of

radioisotopes [3-6], the French atomic energy commission utilizes a mixed

bed exchanger of zirconium phosphate and ammonium phosphotungstate for

the recovery and packaging of cesium-137 [7], a patent has been granted for 94- 9-i-

the removal of Ca and Mg from wash water by the use of zirconium

phosphate in the presence of large amounts of Na^ introduced from detergent

builders Na2SO4.10H2O and Na2Si03, Organic compounds like amines[8-9]

chloroiiydrocarbons und incrcaplans were ciTcclivcly scpurulcd on a

crystalline potassium zirconium phosphate[10]. Catalytic uses on such

materials have also been explored [11-13]. It is for these reasons interest on

the investigation of new inorganic ion exchangers have been revived.

The selectivity of an ion exchange reactions depend on the nature of the ion

exchanger well as on the medium of exchange. Changing the reagent

concentration and reaction conditions can easily alter the nature of inorganic

ion exchanger material, 'fhcse materials have been mainly utilized for the

separation of heavy metals [14-25] and certain organic compounds [26-27J.

Qureshi and coworker in his book titled. "Inorganic ion exchanger in

chemical analysis" also gives a detailed account on the utility of synthetic

inorganic ion exchangers [28]. The applications of synthetic inorganic

exchangers have been further reviewed [29]. It appears from the literature that

most of the studies have been concentrated on ion exchangers based on

zirconium and titanium (IV) and only few studies have been reported on tin

125

Page 145: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

compounds. Amorphous monofunctional inorganic ion exciiangers based on

tin (IV) have been developed [30]. However this material has not been

explored systematically for its applications. Nabi and Coworkers have utilized

the potential of stannic arsenate-silica gel layers for the separation of phenolic

byproducts in banana [31]. Few other studies on the utility of stannic arsenate

have been reported [32-36]. However the earlier studies on this material lacks

in two aspects. Firstly its reproducibility has not been checked and Secondly

distribution behaviors of metal ions in several solvents have not been

investigated in a systematic manner.

The present work deals with the synthesis and ion exchange properties of a

new phase of stannic arsenate. The material has been characterized on basic of

chemical composition, chemical and thermal stabilit>', and TGA, DSC and

FTIR studies. The potentiality of the ion exchanger has been demonstrated by

achieving a few analytically difficult separations and determinations of metal

ions in glass industry wastes using thin layer chromatography.

dephenyl carbazide, 0.1% alcoholic Alizarin Red-S, Yellow ammonium

sulphide, Fresh aqueous sodium rhodizonale in neutral medium, 2% thiourea

in 2 N HCL, 1% ammonical dimethyl glyoxime. Aqueous solution

K4Fe(CN)6, 1,10, Phenenthroline. Metal ion solutions in nitrate form were

used throughout the experiment. All others reagents used were of AR grade.

Preparation of Ion Exchange Material

Stannic arsenate was prepared by adding gradually 0.2 M. Stannic chloride

pentahydrate solution in 0.4 M sodium arsenate solution with continuous

stirring in 3:1 volume ratio at pH 0.4 at 18+2°C. The resulting white

precipitate was digested for 24 h. in the mother liquor. The supernatant liquid

was then removed by decantation. The precipitate formed was washed several

times with demineralized water. The product was filtered under suction pump

and washed again with demineralized water to remove excess reagents. The

precipitate so obtained was divided into two portions, the first one was

utilized for thin layer preparations and the second half was dried in an oven at

60"C. The dried product was immersed in water to gel granules, crushed into

fine particles. It was then converted into H" form by placing it 0.5M HCl

solutions overnight. The reproducibility of this product was checked and the

data are given in Table 1. This final material was studied for characterization

and ion exchange properties.

Preparation of Thin Layer Plates

10 g of cellulose micro crystallite was soaked in 50 cm of demineralized

water to allow the cellulose fiber to smell overnight at room temperature

(30+2°C). The wet compact precipitate of stannic arsenate obtained as

described earlier was mixed with presoaked cellulose in the ratio 1:5. It was

observed that for making a free ilowing slurry of excliangcr and cellniosc

mixture, 8.0 cm^ of demineralized water / 6 g total mass was required to

obtain a uniform thickness of the film. The slurry containing stannic arsenate

ion exchanger and cellulose was stirred for 5 min and immediately spread on

a 20 X 20 cm clean glass plate with the help of an applicator to obtain layer of

0.25 mm thickness. The coated glass plates were air dried at room

temperature (30±2°C) initially and then at (90+2*^0) in an electrically

controlled oven for 1 h. The glass plates were then cooled at room

temperature (30+2°C) and stored in an airtight chamber for TLC.

Ion Exchange/Hydrogen Ion Liberation Capacity

Ion exchange capacities of the material were determined by column process.

1.0 g exchanger in hydrogen form was taken in the column with a glass wool

support. The hydrogen ions were eluted by applying O.IM solutions of uni

and bivalent cations at the rate 6-8 drops/minute. The hydrogen ions in the

effluent were determined by titrating against standard sodium hydroxide

solution.

Chemical Stability

A 0.5 of sample (stannic arsenate) was shaken with 50cm'' of the solvent of

interest for 6h at (30+2°C). Tin and arsenic released in the solvent was

determined spectrophotometrically using hematoxylin[37] and ammonium

molybdate[38] as coloring reagents respectively.

Chemical Composition

A 0.15g of sample was dissolved in approx. 15 cm^ hot concentrated

hydrochloric acid. The solution was cooled and diluted to 100 cm with

dimineralized water. Tin and arsenic was estimated spectrophotometrically

[37-38]. On the basis of chemical analysis, the exact composition of the

material was found to be Sn, 0.28 mmol: As, 0.30 mmol.

Thermal Studies

The thermogravimetric analysis of the exchanger in hydrogen form was

performed at a heating rate of 10°C/min in nitrogen atmosphere from room

temperature (30+2°C) to 900°C. The effect of heating on the ion exchange

capacity of the material was also examined. The sample in the hydrogen form

was heated in the temperature range 100-1000°C for 1 h in a muffle furnace.

Differential scanning calorimetric study of stannic arsenate was under taken

in nitrogen atmosphere upto 600°C at heating rate of 10°C/m.

pH-titration

Topp and pepper's method [39] was used for pH-titrations using NaCl-NaOH,

KCl-KOH and BaCl2-Ba (0H)2 systems. For this purpose 0.5g of exchanger

was treated with 50cm of concerned solution.

IR-spectrum

The IR spectra of stannic arsenate in H^ form was obtained using KBr disc on

a Nicolet Fourier transform spectrometer.

X-Ray Analysis

The exchanger in H" form was analyzed for x-ray diffraction studies using

manganese filtered FeKa radiation at voltage of 40 KV and current of 20 mA.

The speed of recorder was 10 mm/sec 2 9.

Solvents Systems

Solvents were selected on the basis of difference in their polarity in order to

explore the possibility of differential mobility of metal ions. The following

solvents were used as mobile phases: Acetone, Acetic anhydride, Ethanol,

Methanol, Nitrobenzene, Nitromethane, Acetonitrile, N, N, Dimethyl-

formamide and Formamide.

Results and Discussion

Ion exchange capacity and chemical composition data establish that the

stannic arsenate Ibrmcd is reproducible (Table 1). The ion exchange

capacities for alkali and alkaline earth metal ions are shown in (Table 2). It is

evident from the table that the affinity sequence for alkali metal ions is

K' >Li' and for alkaline earth ions is Ba '*'>Ca "*'. This sequence is in

accordance with the hydrated radii of the exchanging ions. The ions with

smaller hydrated radii easily enter the pores of exchanger, resulting in higher

adsorption [41].

Figure 1 shows pH titration curves for the Na"^-H"^,KM-r and Ba^Ml^

exchange processes. The titration process occurs in one stage in all systems

studied suggesting its behavior as a mono functional weak acid.

The effect of heating on ion exchange capacity of stannic arsenate for Ba

ions is shown in Fig. 2. It is quite evident from the figure that the loss in ion

exchange capacity occurs in stages. Initially the decrease in capacity is slow

and gradual upto 500°C and becomes very sharp between 500-1000 **C. At

900^C the ion exchange capacity becomes almost negligible due to formation

of tin oxide. This is also reflected in the thermogram.

The material was found to be fairly stable in lower conccnlralioii of 11( 1,,

IINO3, II2SO4 and alkalis NaOH and KOll. It is also quite stable in organic

acids like acetic acid and formic acid. The material gets completely dissolved

in 2M NaOH/KOH (table3).

FTIR spectra of the sample (Fig. 3) shows a strong and broad band in the

region 3400-2300 cm'' which may be assigned to interstitial water molecule

and o n group [421. Anoliier slrong aiid sharp peak with a lua.viinum at 1627

cm'' may be due to H-OH bending. The spectrum also shows strong bands in

the region 850-450 cm'' indicating the presence of arsenate and metal oxide

band. [43]

The thermogram of stannic arsenate (Fig. 4) shows continuous loss in weight

upto 400*'C. This may be attributed to the elimination of external water

molecules and water molecules arising from condensation of OH groups of

the material. Gradual loss in weight occurs as the temperature is further

increased from 400V-800''C and then sharply between 800V-900"C as a

result of decomposition of arsenate group leading to the formation of stannic

oxide as final product.

The DSC curve (Fig.5) shows a broad endothermic peak between 20-190''C

with a maximum at 51-130°C due to the loss of external water molecules. The

weak upward peaks between 220 to 600°C are due to exothermic burning of

arsenic as arsenic oxide vapors. These changes are also reflected in the TGA

curve.

The X-ray powder diffraction analysis of the material dried at 60 C shows a

semi-crystalline nature with intermittent peaks of weak intensities (i'ig.6).

It has been observed that for most of the metal ions studies, the Rf value

increases with the increase in dielectric constant of the solvent reaching to its

maximum value in nitromethane. However, further increase in the dielectric

constant of the solvent show no systematic trend (Fig. 7a, b).

In case of mixed DMSO-IINO3 systems, R)- value ol" metal ions namely 'An"',

Cd "", Cu^^ Ni "", La^ , Ce "", Cr ^ and Zr'' increases with the increase in the

nitric acid concentration upto solvent system 4 (DMSO+O.3MHNO3, 1:1 v/v).

But Th''"' beha ves differently (Fig.8a, b).

Rp value for Mn " and Fe "* remains constant in the beginning and then

increases shaiply as the hydrochloric acid concentration is increased in

point of application in solvents with compositions (DMSO+0.05M HCI 1:1

then gradually. Cu " , Ni *, La''" and Th'' show an increase in the movement

with the increase in hydrochloric acid concentration. In these cases almost a

linear increase in the Rp value has been observed (table 4) as the hydrochloric

acid content in the composition is increased.

The above behavior of metal ions depends on the extent of exchange reaction

occurring between the hydrogen form of stannic arsenate and the external

solution. The presence of higher concentration of H" ions in the external

solution suppresses the exchange of metal ion with the exchanger and hence

an increases in the Rp value. On the contrary, at high pH the ion exchange

reactions will be facilitated as expected. As a result the metal ions are strongly

retained by the stationary phase (i.e. exchanger phase), which retards the

migration. On the basis of differential migration of metal ions, several binary

and ternary separations of analytical importance have been achieved (Table 5

and 6). The practical utility of this material has been demonstrated by

achieving separation and determination of metal ions in synthetic mixtures as

well as in glass industry waste. The results are reported in Tables 7 and 8.

Conclusions

Stannic arsenate exhibit reasonable thermal and chemical stability. Its use in

thin layer chromatography shows interesting results in the separation of metal

ions. The potentiality of this material can further be explored for difficult

separations of metal ions and organic compounds in industrial wastes and

environmental samples using thin layer and column techniques.

Summary

Stannic silicomolybdate has been synthesized at pH 0.63 .The experimental

parameters like order of mixing, mixing volume ratio, pH, stirring time,

drying temperature has been established for the synthesis of the material. The

ion exchange capacity for Ca " has been improved from 0.53 to 1.73 meq/g

for this newly synthesized material. The reproducibility of the product formed

has been checked. The exchanger was characterized on the basis of chemical

composition, thermal & chemical stability, FTIR, TGA, DSC, X-ray and SEM

analysis .The scanning electron microscopy of the material shows regular

diamond shape morphology. The presence of uniform morphology also

indicates the absence of impure phases. The X-ray diffraction study shows

amorphous nature. Distribution coefficients studies of the metal ions on this

material were performed in solvents having different acid dissociation

constants namely trichloroacetic acid, formic acid and acetic acid. The effect

of dielectric constants of solvents has also been studied by using

dimethylsulfoxide; formic acid, acetic acid& tricholroacetic acid .The effect of

temperature on the distribution coefficient has been explored. It was finally

Introduction

Inorganic ion exchangers are in general superior to organic exchangers in

some aspects as they are resistant towards high ionizing radiations [1-2] and

can be used at elevated temperatures without the danger of decomposition.

Moreover, thej often exhibit specificity towards certain metal ions. It is for

these reasons there has been a revolutionary growth in the field of synthetic

ion exchangers. [3] Studies have been made for their preparation, properties

and analytical applications to simple binary and ternary separations of metal

ions have been performed by different chromatographic techniques [4-15].

However their analytical and industrial applications in diverse fields is yet to

be explored. It has been observed that double salts often exhibit much better

ion exchange properties than simple salts [16-19]. Tin (IV) based ion

exchangers have received attention because of their excellent ion exchange

behavior. They are accepted to have radiation stability. Because of their

reproducible behavior and ion exchange properties, their utility has been

demonstrated for the separation of various metal ions [20-21]. Double salts

comprising of molybdoarsenate [22], vanadoarsenate [23], vanadotungstate

[24], selenoarsenate [25], arsenosilicate [26], tungstoselenate [27], iodophos-

phate [28], selenophosphate [29], pyrpphosphate [30], tungstophosphate [31],

molybdosilicate [32-33] and molybdophosphate [34] based on tin (IV) has

been synthesized.

The present work has been undertaken in an attempt to synthesize new phase

of stannic silicomolybdate. Efforts have been made to explore the effect of

temperature; dielectric constant and acid dissociation constants of solvents on

the distribution coefficient of metal ions have been extensively studied. The

practical utilitj' of the material has been demonstrated by separating and

analyzing the standard sample of brass.

Experimental

Reagents and Chemicals

Stannic (IV) chloride pentahydrate (LobaChemieJndia), Sodiummolybdate

(M&B,USA), Sodium metasilicate (CDH, India), Nitrates of metal ions

(E.Merck India) used were of analytical grade.

Apparatus

Specronic 20-Genesis for specrophotometric dereminations, Perkin Elmer

Spectronic BX FTIR for IR studies, a Philips (Martin HollandPW 7030/10)

for Xray diffraction, Elico (EL-10, India) for pH measurements, Perkin Elmer

(TGA7 & DSC7) for thermal analysis and scanning electron microscopy was

performed on Cambridge instruments (stereoscan360, U.K).

Syntheses

Stannic silicomiolybdate was prepared by adding mixture of 0.1 M aqueous

solutions of sodium molybdate and sodium metasilicate in O.IM aqueous

solution of stannic chloride pentahydtare with constant stirring in 1:1 volume

ratio. The pH (0.63) of the resulting solution was maintained by adding IM

HNO3. The yellow precipitate obtained was digested with mother liquor

overnight. The supernatant liquid was tested to ensure for the complete

utilization of the reagents. The liquid is separated from the precipitates by

decantation. The precipitate was washed with DMW several times; filtered

and washed again to remove reagents if any adhered with the precipitates. The

final product v/as dried at 40+2°C in an electrically controlled oven. The

material was cracked into fine particles when immersed in water. It was

converted into H" form by treating with l.OM HNO3 solutions. It was finally

rinsed with dimineralised water to remove excess acid in a column and dried

in an oven at 40+2°C.

Ion Exchange Capacity

A 1.0 g (dry mass) of stannic silicomolybdate in H^ form was packed in a

glass column having glass wool support at the base. A 0.1 M NaNOs solution

158

Page 179: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

was passed slowly by adjusting Ihe cfnucnl rate at 9-10 drops/min.Thc

effluent was carefully collected in a 250 ml conical flask. The complete

replacement of H" from the ion exchanger by K was ciicckcd by comparing

the pH of the influent (O.IM NaNOs) and effluent. The collected effluent was

titrated against standard NaOH solution.

pH titration

Topp and Pepper method was used for pli studies in LiCl-LiOll, NaCl-

NaOII, KCl-KOII, CaCl2-Ca(OII)2, MgCl2-Mg(OIl)2 and BaCl2-Ba(011)2

systems [35]. For this 0.5 g exchanger was treated with 50 ml of concerned

solution.

Chemical Stability

The chemical stability of stannic silicomolybdate was examined in several

mineral acids like HCl, HNO3 and H2SO4 and in bases, NaOll and KOH. A

0.5g of ion exchange material was placed in 50ml solvent of interest and kept

for 24h at room temperature. Tin, molybdate and silica released in the

solution were determined spectrophotometrically using suitable reagents [36-

38].

Chemical Composition

A 0.15g of samiple was dissolved in 15 ml hot concentrated nitric acid. The

solution was cooled and diluted to 100ml with dcmincralizcd water .The

metal contents in the solution phase were determined spectrophotometrically

[36-38].

Thermal Stability

The effect of drying temperature of the material on the ion exchange capacity

was studied by heating stannic silicomolybdate from 100-1000°C for Ih in a

muffle furnace and subsequently the ion exchange capacity was determined

using standard NaOH solution.

159

IR Analysis

For IR analysis of the material, lOmg of the exchanger in H^ form was taken.

The ion exchanger was thoroughly mixed with lOOmg of KBr and grounded

to a fine powder. A transparent disc was formed by applying a pressure of

80,000psi (lpsi=6894.76) in a moisture free atmosphere. The disc formed

contained 50-100|ig of the ion exchanger. The IR absorption spectrum was

recorded between 400-4000cm''.

Scanning Electron Microscopy

Electron micrographs were recorded for stannic silicomolybdate by scanning

electron microscope at 20.0 Kv. The details are shown in SEM photographs.

X-Ray Studies

For x-ray diffraction analysis, manganese filtered CuKa radiation (X,=1.5418)

was used. The instrument was equipped with graphite monochromotor

operating at 40KV and 30mA. The X-ray studies were performed between 10

to 70°29 while the speed of the recorder was maintained at lOmm/sec20.

Distribution Studies

Distribution coefficient (Kd) for metal ions Ag^ Ca^*, Mg^^ Ba^^ Sr^^ Cd^^

Co^^ Ni^^ Pb^^ Zr?\ C?\ VQ'\ Cu'^ C^\ L^\ Zv'\ Th''^ Sn" and k?'

were determined in a number of solvents viz formic acid, dimethlyformamide

acetic acid, trichloroacetic acid and mixed systems .The effect of temperature

on the distribution coefficient was also studied. 0.5g of stannic

silicomolybdate in H form was put into 100ml conical ilasks each containing

50ml solution of 2*10' ' 'M concentration of metal ions. The mixture was

continuously shaken for 3h at 30°C, 45''C, 60''C and 75"C.The amount of

metal ion present in the solution was determined by titrating it against

disodiun salt of EDTA using standard procedures [39]. Distribution

coefficient valves were calculated by using the following relationship

160

Page 181: core.ac.uk · 2018-01-04 · Abstract The process of ion exchange is defined as exchange oi" ions oi" liJvc charges between the solutions and generally solid, which are highly insoluble

The Kd values were calculated using the following formula.

Amount of metal ion in the exchanger phase /g exchanger Kd=

Amount of metal ion in the solution phase /mL solution

In our case (I-F)/0.5g (I-F)

Kd = = X 100 I-F/50ml F

Where I is the volume of EDTA used before treatment with exchanger

F is the volume of EDTA used after treatment

I-F Amount of metal ion in resin phase.

Separations

Quantitative separations of metal ions in binary and ternary synthetic mixtures

In order to explore the separation ability of stannic silicomolybdate by

column chromatography, a number of binary and ternary quantitative

separations of metal ions were practically achieved.l.Og of stannic

silicomolybdate in H" form (50-100 mesh) was packed in a glass column of

inner diameter 1.1 cm with a glass wool support at the base. Mixture of metal

ions solution to be separated was then poured into the column. The solution

was allowed to move through the column at the rate of 8-lOdrops/min and

recycled at least three times. The column was washed with demineralized

water to rinse the sides of the column. The adsorbed metal ions were then

eluted with appropriate eluents. The flow rate of the effluent was maintained

at ImL/min throughout the elution process .The effluents was collected in

lOmL fractions and metal ions contents were determined titrimetrically

against EDTA solution.

Quantitative Separation of Cu ^ and zn ^ in Commercially Available Brass

Sample

2.0 g of commercially available brass in the form of solid chip was dissolved

in minimum quantity of aqua regia. Thereafter the solution containing Cu '

and Zn "*" was diluted in a 100 ml standard volumetric flask. Now this stock

solution was utilized in the determination of the metal contents in the given

sample. Suitable volumes of stock solution were poured into the stannic

silicomolybdate column. The subsequent steps were the same as described

earlier in section

Results and Discussions:

Table 1 shows the synthesis of single and double salts of stannic

silicomolybdate .It is quite evident from the data that double salts shows

superiority over their single counterparts in terms of ion exchange capacity.

Table 2 shows the reproducibility data in terms of ion exchange capacity,

composition and yield. Only the pH of the resultant mixture was varied while

the rest of the experimental conditions remain the same. I Icncc sample no 5

was chosen for detailed studies.

The ion exchange capacities for mono and bivalent metal ions are represented

in table 3. The alkali metal shows decreasing trend for ion exchange capacity

in the following order K' >Na" >Li ^ while the alkaline earth metal ion follow

the sequence Ba " >Sr " >Ca '*'> Mg " . This sequence is in accordance with the

hydrated radii of the exchanging ions. The ions with smaller hydrated radii

easily enter the pores of the exchanger resulting in higher adsorption. [40].

Figures 1 and la represent the pH titration curves for mono and bivalent

systems namely LiCl- LiOH, NaCl-NaOH, KCl-KOH, CaCL2-Ca(OH)2,

MgCl2-Mg(0H);., BaCl2-Ba(OH)2 respectively. The uptake of alkaline earth

metal ion in the pH region 2-6 follows the order Mg "*">Ca" >Ba '*"> both in

acidic and basic regions whereas in case of alkali metal ions in the pH region

2.3-7.5,the trend is Li''>Na^>K^

The chemical analysis data in lahic 4 reveals Ihal slaiiiiie silicomolylxiale is

highly stable up to l.OM Concentration in alkalis and fairly stable in mineral

acids.

The chemical composition analysis reveals the Sn:Si:Mo ratio as 4:3:2. The

superiority of the newly synthesized Stannic silicomolybdate can be readily

emphasized from figure2 that it retains considerable ion exchange capacity

even at 800°C while the other material have negligible ion exchange capacity

even at 60''C.The ion exchange capacity of various materials dried at 40"C

shows the following decreasing trend, Tin (IV) silicomolybdate* >'fin (IV)

iodophospate [41] > Zr (IV) iodomolybdate [42] > Tin (IV) molybdoarsenate

[43] > Tin (IV) Tungstoselenate [44] > Tin (IV) silicomolybdate** [45] > Tin

(IV) Tungstosilicate [46]. It is also interesting to note that there is a decrease

in the ion exchange capacity in all cases as the drying temperature of the

material is increased except the previously synthesized stannic

silicomolybdate which shows abnormal behavior in the increase in the ion

exchange capacity with the increase in the drying temperature [45]. It is also

apparent in case of newly synthesized material that the loss in ion exchange

capacity is gradual with increasing drying temperature while in other cases

the loss in ion exchange capacity is sharp.

The infrared spectrum of stannic silicomolybdate in H* is shown in llgurc3.

The strong and broad band in the region 3500-300cm"' may be assigned to

interstitial water molecules and OH groups. Another strong and sharp peak

with a maximum at 1626cm'' is due to 11-0-11 bending .The spectrum of

stannic silicomolybdate shows a strong and weak band at 1104cm'' and

942cm' respectively indicates the presence of silicate and molybdate groups

[47]. Band at 585cm"' is due to metal oxide bond.

The scanning electron microscopy of newly syntiiesi/xd stannic

silicomolybdate shows regular uniform diamond morphology. The presence

of uniform morjDhology also indicates the absence of impure phases [48]. The

results are shown in photograph 4. The X-ray diffraction study of the material

shows amorphous nature.

A broad endothermic peak in DSC curve (fig.6, 6a) in the temperature region

6O-I8OV is due to gradual loss of external water molecules from the material.

Two exothermic peaks with T,nax at 280 and another at 311"C may be caused

by physical transitions such as crystallization occurring during heating. These

conclusions are also supported by thermogram and a derivative thermogram

(fig.5), which show weight loss up to 200°C.No further loss in weight has

been observed. The ion exchange capacity data also supports these llndings.

On the basis of chemical composition, thermal and IR studies, a tentative

formula may be assigned for stannic silicomolybdate as

l(Sn02)4 .(I l2Si03)2. (112M0 0,)3j .nl bO

If all the external water molecules are lost upto 150"C,thcn the weight loss as

calculated from TGA curve was 08%. The number of water molecules (n)

per mole of the material can be calculated from Albcrti's equation [49|.

X(M+18n) 18n -

100

Where:

X: percent water content and M+18n is the molecular weight of the material.

It gives the value of n »6.

The above formula can be then rewritten as

[(Sn02)4 .(H2Si03)2 .(H2M0 04)3] .6H2O

The H^ attached to silicate and molybdate group seem to be responsible for

the exchange characteristic of this material.

It appears from figure? that pH of the solution decreases wilh increase in lime

of equibration due to release of hydrogen with sodium ions. It is evident that

the equibration time fro ion exchange is attained after 4h since there is no

further release of hydrogen ions in the solution phase.

The data in figures8,8a, show the variation in Kd valve with variation in

temperature in formic acid .All the metal ions studied exhibit a general trend

of highest Kd at 45°C and then a gradual decrease with the increase in

temperature .In some cases for example Ni ' ,Cr " ,Th''" and Sr^*), the Kd

remains constant with the increase in temperature beyond 45°C.In acetic acid

system, almost similar behavior has been observed (see figures 9, 9a &

9b).Therefore the optimum temperature for the sorption of metal ions is 45°C.

The distribution studies of metal ions in various organic acids with different

dissociation constants has been shown in figurelO .It has been found that

formic acid with dissociation constant (58.0) is most favorable for the uptake

of metal ions namely Al^^ Zx^\ l\i^\ Sn'*\ Mg^\ Pb^^ Zx^\ Ni^^ Ce^^ and

La " . Kd valves remains almost ineffective by the variation of dissociation

constant for k% , Q^\ Sr^^ Cd^^ Co "" and Fe^^

The effect of dielectric constant of the solvent systems on Kd has also been

studied. The results are shown in figure 11,1 la which revealed that in case of

Ag" ' Ca " , Mg " , Cd " , Pb " , Zn "*", Co^ , and Fe^ , there is no significant

variation with the change in dielectric constant. However Ce *", La " , Zr''" and

Th''" show interesting features. The Kd valve decreases with the increase in

the dielectric constant of the solvent systems studied (fig.9a). This decrease in

Kd docs not follow linearity.

It is apparent from table 5 that Kd values in O.IM DMSO are relatively high

as compared to formic acid medium. However on mixing formic acid in

DMSO there is decrease in Kd values for most of the metal ions with the

exception of Ce "*", La"'" and Sn'*" . This may probably be due to increase in

polarity of the mixed system.

Similar trend is observed in case of O.IM TCA-O.IM A.A systems. Table 6

shows the quantitative separation of metal ions in synthetic ternary mixtures.

It is evident from the data that metal ions of economic importance as well as

those which are industrial waste can be separated on a column of stannic

silicomolybdate acting as ion exchanger. After able to achieve ternary

separations in ternary mixtures by column chromatography, quantitative

separation of Cu andZn was undertaken in synthetic sample prior to its

determination in commercially available alloy sample ie brass. The result in

table 7 shows quantitative separation of Cu and Zn in brass at different

loadings. Table 8 shows the separation data.
