Magnetic poly(ethylene glycol dimethacrylate-vinyl imidazole) [m-poly(EGDMA-VIM)] beads were produced by suspension polymerization in the presence of magnetite Fe3O4 nano-powder. The specific surface area of the m-poly(EGDMA-VIM) beads was found to be 63.1 m(2)/g with a size range of 150-200 m in diameter and the swelling ratio was 85%. The average Fe3O4 content of the resulting m-poly(EGDMA-VIM) beads was 12.4%. The maximum binding capacities of the m-poly(EGDMA-VIM) beads were 32.4 mg/g for Cu2+, 45.8mg/g for Zn2+, 84.2 mg/g for Cd2+ and 134.5 mg/g for Pb2+. The affinity order on mass basis is Pb2+ > Cd2+ > Zn2+ > Cu2+. Equilibrium data agreed well with the Langmuir model. pH significantly affected the binding capacity of the magnetic beads. Binding of heavy metal ions from synthetic wastewater was also studied. The binding capacities were 26.2 mg/g for Cu2+, 33.7 mg/g for Zn2+, 54.7 mg/g for Cd2+ and 108.4 mg/g for Pb2+. The magnetic beads could be regenerated up to about 97% by treating with 0.1 M HNO3. These features make m-poly(EGDMA-VIM) beads a potential candidate for support of heavy metal removal under magnetic field.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAffinity bindingHeavy metal removalMagnetic beadsN-vinyl imidazoleChemical reactionsChemicals removal (water treatment)ElectrolysisEthyleneEthylene glyGlycolsHeavy metalscolIonsIron oresMagnetic field measurementMagnetic fieldsMagnetic materialsMagnetiteMetal ionsMetal recoveryMonomersOxide mineralsPolymersTrace analysisBinding capacitiesEquilibrium dataEthylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA)Heavy metal ionsHeavy metal removalLangmuir model (LD)Magnetic (CE)Magnetic beadsNano powdersSize rangesSpecific surfacesSuspension polymerizationsSwelling ratio (SR)Synthetic solutionsSynthetic wastewatersVinyl imidazoleMetalsAntibody removalAdsorptionWaterIonsPurificationCompositeSorbentsChelatorMercuryProteinPolymer scienceArticle0002570565000062-s2.0-47749094692635642458Polymer scienceCibacron Blue F 3Ga; Cryogels; Muramidase
