Abstract

Sodium (Z)-15-carboxylato-8-(2-(((Z)-3-carboxylatoacryloyl)oxy) ethyl)-4,13-dioxo-5,11,12-trioxa-8,16-diazahentriacont-2-enoate has been synthesized. The chemical structure was confirmed by FT-IR and 1HNMR spectroscopy. The surface properties of the synthesized trianionic surfactant, including the critical micelle concentration (CMC), effectiveness (πcmc), maximum surface excess (Γmax), and minimum surface area (Amin) were determined from surface tension measurements. The efficiency of the trianionic surfactant to remove Pb(II) was determined using a flotation cell at different surfactant concentrations (below, at and beyond the CMC). Flame atomic absorption spectroscopy was used to determine the initial and final concentrations of Pb(II) ions. At pH 6 and a foaming time of 2 hr, the removal efficiency of Pb(II) increases with increasing the trianionic surfactant concentration.

Kurzfassung

Natrium-(Z)-15-carboxylato-8-(2-((Z-(Z)-3-carboxylatoacryloyl)oxy)-ethyl)-4,13-dioxo-5,11,12-trioxa-8,16-diazahentriacont-2-enoat wurde synthetisiert. Die chemische Struktur wurde mittels FT-IR- und 1H-NMR-Spektroskopie bestätigt. Die Oberflächeneigenschaften des synthetisierten trianionischen Tensids, d.h. die kritische Mizellenbildungskonzentration (CMC), der Oberflächendruck (πcmc), der maximale Oberflächenüberschuss (Γmax) und der minimale Platzbedarf (Amin), wurden aus Oberflächenspannungsmessungen bestimmt. Die Effizienz des trianionischen Tensids zur Entfernung von Pb(II)-Ionen wurde unter Verwendung einer Flotationszelle bei verschiedenen Tensidkonzentrationen (unterhalb, bei und oberhalb der CMC) bestimmt. Die Flammenatomabsorptionsspektroskopie wird verwendet, um die anfänglichen und endgültigen Konzentrationen der Pb(II)-Ionen zu bestimmen. Die Effizienz der Entfernung von Pb(II) nahm mit zunehmender Konzentration des Trianiontensids bei einem pH von 6 und einer Schaumbildungsdauer von 2 Stunden zu.
