A Study on Adsorption Characterics of Metallic Ions by Tannin Immobilized on Chitin and Chitosan

Chitin 및 Chitosan에의 고정화 탄닌의 금속이온 흡착특성에 관한 연구

Epoxy-activated chitin was synthesized by the reaction of epichlorohydrin with chitin which was isolated from waste marine sources such as crab shell. Followed by the reaction of epoxy-activated chitin with hexamethylenediamine, the aminohexyl chitin was synthesized. The aminohexyl chitin was subsequently reacted with epichlorohydrin to prepare the epoxy-activated aminohexyl chitin. Finally, the tannin-immobilized chitin (Resin I) was synthsized by the reaction of tannin solution with epoxy-activated aminohexyl chitin. Using silane coupling agent, the tannin-immobilized chitosan(Resin II) was synthesized by the reaction of $\gamma$-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxy silane with chitosan which was prepared by the deacetylation of chitin. Upon the pH variation, adsorptivities of these immobilized tannins to the metal ions such as $Cu^{+2}$, $Ni^{+2}$, $Cr^{+6}$, $Co^{+2}$, $Ca^{+2}$, $Pb^{+2}$, $Ba^{+2}$, and $UO_2{^{+2}}$ ions were determined by batch method. The adsorptivity tendencies of these immobilized tannin to the most of metallic ions were increased with pH. Furthermore, the adsorptivities of Resin(I) and Resin(II) upon the variation of pH, contact time, amount of resin and concentration of metal ion were investigated. As a result, it was found that these immobilized tannin on both chitin and chitosan showed good adsorptivities for uranyl ion.

게껍질과 같은 수산계 페기물로부터 추출한 chitin과 epichlorohydrin을 반응시켜 epoxy-activated chitin을 합성하였다. 이것을 hexamethylene diamine을 사용하여 aminohexyl chitin을 합성하였고 다시 epichlorohydrin과 반응시켜 epoxy-activated aminohexyl chitin을 합성하였다. 최종적으로 epoxy-activated aminohexyl chitin을 tannin을 고정화시킨 chitin(Resin I)을 합성하였다. 또한 chitosan과 silane coupling agent인 $\gamma$-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxy silane을 반응시켜 tannin을 고정화 시킨 chitosan(Resin II)을 합성하였다. pH를 변화시키면서 $Cu^{+2}$, $Ni^{+2}$, $Cr^{+6}$, $Co^{+2}$, $Pb^{+2}$, $Ba^{+2}$, 및 $UO_2{^{2+}}$와 같은 금속이온들에 대한 고정화 tannin의 흡착은 batch법으로 측정하였다. 금속이온들에 대한 이들 고정화 tannin의 흡착 경향은 pH의 증가와 더불에 흡착능이 증가하였다. 또한 pH의 변화, 접촉시간, 수지의 양 그리고 금속이온의 농도에 따른 Resin(I)과 Resin(II)의 흡착능을 검토하였다. 결과적으로 chitin과 chitosan에 고정화 시킨 tannin은 uranyl이온에 대해 좋은 흡착능을 보였다.
