Abstract Summary: The monodisperse chitosan-conjugated Fe3O4 nanoparticles with a mean diameter of 13.5 nm were fabricated by the carboxymethylation of chitosan and its covalent binding onto Fe3O4 nanoparticles via carbodiimide activation. The carboxymethylated chitosan (CMCH)-conjugated Fe3O4 nanoparticles with about 4.92 wt.-% of CMCH had an isoelectric point of 5.95 and were shown to be quite efficient as anionic magnetic nano-adsorbent for the removal of acid dyes. Both the adsorption capacities of crocein orange G (AO12) and acid green 25 (AG25), as the model compounds, decreased with increasing pH, and the decreasing effect was more significant for AO12. On the contrary, the increase in the ionic strength decreased the adsorption capacity of AG25 but did not affect, obviously, the adsorption capacity of AO12. By the addition of NaCl and NaOH, both AO12 and AG25 could desorb and their different desorption behavior could be attributed to the combined effect of pH and ionic strength. From the adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics studies, it was found that both the adsorption processes of AO12 and AG25 obeyed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, Langmuir isotherm, and might be surface reaction-controlled. Furthermore, the time required to reach the equilibrium for each one was significantly shorter than those using the micro-sized adsorbents due to the large available surface area. Also, based on the weight of chitosan, the maximum adsorption capacities were 1,883 and 1,471 mg,·,g,1 for AO12 and AG25, respectively, much higher than the reported data. Thus, the anionic magnetic nano-adsorbent could not only be magnetically manipulated but also possessed the advantages of fast adsorption rate and high adsorption capacity. This could be useful in the fields of separation and magnetic carriers. Acid dyes adsorption onto the CMCH-conjugated Fe3O4 nanoparticles. [source]


Improved design and optimization models for the fixed bed adsorption of acid dye and zinc ions from effluents

JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL TECHNOLOGY & BIOTECHNOLOGY, Issue 12 2002

Abstract The bed depth service time (BDST) design model, which accounts for the change of bed adsorption capacity with service time, has been modified to expand its application and overcome the limiting assumptions of the original BDST analysis. Column experiments were undertaken to test the new model for two adsorption systems, namely zinc ion,bone char and Acid Blue 80 dye-activated carbon. It was found that the percentage of saturation capacity could be correlated using a square-root dependence on the service time and this correlation was incorporated into the original BDST analysis to replace the total sorption capacity term, giving the model a much wider application to real systems. The empty bed residence time optimization approach was modified using the same time-dependent capacity expression and was successfully applied to the metal ion,bone char and the dye-activated carbon system with the use of equilibrium saturated bed capacity. These modifications to the BDST design model and the EBRT optimization model will give more accurate scale-up data for the design of large-scale column adsorption systems. © 2002 Society of Chemical Industry [source]


Use of copper(II)/ethylene diamine-cotton complex for the adsorption of residual dyes

Abstract The chemical modification of cotton is performed by successive reactions with thionyl chloride followed by ethylene diamine (ED) to prepare aminoalkyl amino cotton namely ED-cotton. Evidence of attaching ethylene diamine groups onto cotton is provided by nitrogen determination and thermogravimetry analysis. Because of complexation, the ethylene diamine-grafted groups immobilizes Cu(II) ions from buffered solution at pH 6. The formation of a 1/1 complex is assessed by the adsorption limit values. The binary system [Cu(II)/ED-cotton] is then tested for the adsorption of two acid dyes (Acid Blue 25 and Calmagite) as ligands in the metal-coordinating process. The adsorption of Cu(II) onto ED-cotton and of the dyes onto Cu(II)/ED-cotton is followed spectrometrically. The observed stoichiometries of the ternary-formed complex [Dye/Cu(II)/ED-cotton] are 1/1/1 with Acid Blue 25 and 0.75/1/1 with Calmagite at 20°C. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms constants for the adsorption of the tested dyes onto Cu(II)/ED-cotton are evaluated from the experimental data, but better agreement is obtained by using the composite isotherm of Jossens. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Application of solid-phase concentration-dependent HSDM to the acid dye adsorption system

AICHE JOURNAL, Issue 1 2005
Vinci K. C. Lee
Abstract The fixed-bed adsorption of acid dyes onto granular activated carbon (Chemviron Filtrasorb 400) has been studied using a homogeneous surface diffusion model (HSDM). The model incorporates the external boundary layer mass transport and homogeneous diffusion inside the particle. A new orthogonal collocation method has been developed and used to solve the diffusion equations. This orthogonal collocation gives a faster solution method compared with the numerical Crank,Nicolson method. The surface diffusivity has been determined by an optimization procedure with minimization of sum of the error squared. The equilibrium relationship between the liquid-phase concentration and the solid-phase concentration has been described by the Redlich,Peterson isotherm. A solid-phase concentration-dependent surface diffusivity was introduced. The Darken model with the Redlich,Peterson isotherm was found to be a suitable correlation model for the adsorption of the acid dyes on carbon. The magnitude of the averaged Ds0 of each dye is in the order of AR114 > AB80 > AY117, which implies that, under the same solid-phase concentration gradient, the rate of mass transport diffusion is higher in AR114 than that in AB80 and AY117. This phenomenon may be explained by the different mobilities of the dye molecules present in the solution by the different arrangements of two sulfonic acid groups in the dye structures. © 2004 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 51: 323-332, 2005 [source]

Effect of ,-irradiation on the physical properties and dyeability of poly(vinyl butyral) blends with polystyrene and poly(ethylene glycol)

POLYMER COMPOSITES, Issue 6 2008
Horia M. Nizam El-Din
Cast films of polymer blends essentially based on poly(vinyl butyral) (PVB) and equal ratios of polystyrene (PS) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) were prepared from benzene and butyl alcohol solutions of the individual polymers. The effect of ,-irradiation on the thermal decomposition and tensile mechanical properties was investigated. Moreover, the effect of ,-irradiation on the dye affinity of PVB/PS and PVB/PEG for basic and acid dyestuffs was studied. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) study showed that the unirradiated PVB polymer films prepared in benzene displayed higher thermal stability than the same polymer films prepared in butanol. However, in all cases the thermal stability was found to increase with increasing ,-irradiation dose. On the other hand, PVB/PS blend possesses higher thermal stability than PVB/PEG, as shown from the determination of the weight loss (%) at different heating temperatures, the temperatures of the maximum rate of reaction and the activation energy. While, pure PS films showed the stress-strain behavior of brittle polymers, PVB/PS films showed the behavior of tough polymers with yielding properties. The results of dyeing clearly showed that the solvent type, blend composition, and irradiation dose are determining factors for the dye affinity for basic or acid dyes. For example, unirradiated PVB films prepared from butanol displayed a higher affinity for the basic and acid dyes than the same polymer prepared from the same benzene. However, PVB prepared from butanol showed higher affinity to the dyes than PS prepared from the same solvent. POLYM. COMPOS., 2008. © 2008 Society of Plastics Engineers [source]

COLORATION TECHNOLOGY, Issue 4 2010
H D Joshi
Lyocell union fabrics, namely lyocell/silk and lyocell/polyester fabrics, were woven in different fabric constructions and dyed with reactive dyes, acid dyes and a disperse dye. The resulting dyed fabrics were given a resin finishing treatment and their wash fastness was measured. With appropriate dye selection and control of dyeing conditions, some bright solid shades and effective cross-dyed shades were obtained. The dyed and finished fabrics had a smooth, lustrous handle, ideal for lightweight garments. [source]


Novel anti-bacterial acid dyes derived from naphthalimide: synthesis, characterisation and evaluation of their technical properties on nylon 6

COLORATION TECHNOLOGY, Issue 2 2010
Zinat Mohammadkhodaei
As an attempt to combine the dyeing and functional finishing steps into one process, two novel anti-bacterial monoazo acid dyes based on N -ester-1,8-naphthalimide were synthesised. To do this, 4-amino- N -ethyl glycinate-1,8-naphthalimide was prepared, diazotised and then coupled to thiosalicylic acid or salicylic acid to produce anti-bacterial dyes. The synthesised dyes were purified and then fully characterised using Fourier Transform,infrared spectrometry, proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and melting point analysis. Dispersion of the dyes was prepared in water and applied to nylon 6 fabrics. The novel dyes offered good build-up properties on the substrate. The anti-bacterial efficacy of the synthesised dyes was assessed, with the dyes showing activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. [source]


Effect of nanoclays on the dyeability of polypropylene nanocomposite fibres

COLORATION TECHNOLOGY, Issue 2 2008
Lova Razafimahefa
Polypropylene clay fibres loaded with different alkylammonium-modified montmorillonite were prepared using a melt spinning technique and relationships between the structure and properties of the nanopolypropylene fibres are discussed. Experiments carried out using transmission electron microscopy showed that the chemical structure of the organic modifier and the interlayer spacing of the clay induced different dispersions of the clay, thus improving accessibility of the nano fibre. It is known that nanoclays are effective and efficient sorbents for dyes. Therefore, the dyeing behaviour of the nano polypropylene fibres with two distinct acid dyes and a disperse dye was studied and the build-up of dyes, measured as colour yield, reported. The best results were obtained when the clay was well dispersed in nanopolypropylene fibres; that is, when maleated polypropylene was added as a compatibiliser and when disperse dye was used. Good wash fastness was then obtained. [source]


Decoloration of acid dye effluent with ozone: effect of pH, salt concentration and treatment time

COLORATION TECHNOLOGY, Issue 1 2005
M Muthukumar
A study of the ozone treatment of textile effluent containing acid dyes has been carried out to explore the influence of their chemistry, and the pH, salt concentration, ozone dose and time of treatment. The experiments were constructed using a Box-Hunter second-order composite design for three variables. The study has demonstrated that the type of aromatic rings and the number of sulphonic acid groups in the dye have a marked effect on decoloration. The pH, salt concentration and treatment time are also found to have a predictable influence. The ozone oxidation of acid dye effluent results in a reduction in pH and total organic carbon content.

Dye diffusion and the phenomenon of barriness on polyamide fabrics

COLORATION TECHNOLOGY, Issue 2 2004
L Razafimahefa
Dyed polyamide fabrics tend to exhibit barriness, particularly when acid dyes of good wet fastness are used. The causes of this phenomenon have been investigated by studying the diffusion kinetics of the dyeing process. The conditions used in the pretreatment of the yarn have been considered, in particular the effect of mechanical and thermal conditions during thermal pretreatment. It has been demonstrated that barriness is dependent only on the kinetics of diffusion. If drawing is increased, the rate of dye diffusion is reduced, whereas an increase in the texturising temperature tends to increase it. The influence of dye diffusion decreases as the dyeing temperature rises. The traditional practice of dyers to attempt to reduce barriness by raising the dyebath temperature very slowly therefore makes matters worse. To reduce barring it would be preferable to introduce the dyestuff to the dyebath only once the dyeing temperature has been reached. [source]
