| Abstract: | Selectivity coefficients for binding of negative and positive ions to chitosans of different chemical composition have been determined by equilibrium dialysis. Chitosans with different fraction of acetylated units (FA of 0.01 and 0.49) generally behaved similarly in their selectivity towards both negative and positive ions. No selectivity was found in the binding of chloride and nitrate ions, while chitosan showed a strong selectivity towards molybdate polyoxyanions, with selectivity coefficients around 100. Chitosan showed a strong selectivity towards copper (Cu2+) compared to the metal ions zinc (Zn2+), cadmium (Cd2+) and nickel (Ni2+), with selectivity coefficients from 10 to 1000, while little or no selectivity could be detected with the other metal ions. Ionic strength and pH did not influence the selectivity coefficients of the chitosans towards the metal ions. |
