The thesis entitled, "Studies on synthetic inorganic

ion exchangers" is comprised of 5 chapters. Chapter I is

general introduction covering the literature, to date through

availahle journals, on the subject. The emphasis has been

given on the importance ol ion exchange as an analytical

technique. Overall the introduction covers a critical review

of the earlier woiic done on inorganic ion exchangers, their

characterization, applications and main interest towards the

mechanism of ion exchange and ion exchange equilibria. Looking

for the growing interest in the physical chemistry of ion

exchange, the emphasis has been put on the thermodynamics and

kinetics of ion exchange.

The second chapter deals with the, "Ion exchange

equilibria of alkali metal ions on ferric antimonate". Because

inorganic ion exchangers have a rigid structure, they swell to a

negligible extent and, therefore, the thermodynamic studies on

Inorganic ion exchangers will be simpler than that on their

organic counterparts which have appreciable swelling. The

Influence of temperature on the ion exchange equilibria of

Li , Na , K and Rb with H has been described in this chapter o

for a temperature variation of 30 to 60 C. The thermodynamic 0 0 o

parameters, AG , AH and AS have been evaluated. The

equilibrium experiments were performed by a batch process

equi l ib ra t ing for 6 hours at desired temperatures. The exchange

Isotherms are plotted for the said ions and the r e su l t s indicate

a d i f f e r en t i a l s e l ec t iv i ty with a revers ible exchange process

H* + n* ===± M* + H*

where M* stands for an a l k a l i metal ion and bar represents the

exchanger phase. The se l ec t iv i ty coeff ic ients have been

calculated by the experimental r e s u l t s and the thermodynamic

parameters then calculated using appropriate equat ions . The

hypothet ical data at "zero loading" have also been evaluated.

The th i rd chapter deals with the , "Ion exchange 2 - 2- 2 - 2 - - -

equ i l ib r i a of CrgO- , CrO^ , SgO- , SO^ and MnO^ with NO- on

zirconium t r ie thylamine" . The survey of the e a r l i e r l i t e r a t u r e

shows that only a few thermodynamic studies have been made on

inorganic anion exchangers. This chapter describes the

thermodynamic s tudies on a new inorganic ion exchanger, zirconium

t r ie thylamine , A simple approach has been applied using a batch

process for equilibrium based on the mass action law modified

in terms of a c t i v i t i e s . The various isotherms plot ted indicate

t h a t the bivalent anions are preferred to n i t r a t e ions by the

zirconium triethylamine exchanger. All the isotherms show

r e v e r s i b i l i t y of ion exchange whereas the s e l e c t i v i t y sequence

is

Cr^O^- > Cro2- > S^of" ) sof- ^ MnO^

The r e s u l t s of the s e l e c t i v i t y coeff ic ients indicate tha t the

( i i l >

value of s e l e c t i v i t y coef l ic ient decreases as the temperature

inc reases . The thermodynamic parameters are evaluated by the

thermodynamic equilibrium constant .

The fourth chapter describes the , "Ion exchange k ine t i c s

of t r ans i t ion metal ions on stannic oxide". Kinet ics play an

important role to study the mechanism of ion exchange. The

mechanism has been found to be a par t ic le diffusion cont ro l ,

A theore t i ca l approach based on cer ta in ca lcu la t ions has been

appl ied. The energy of act ivat ion and other parameters are "5+ 2+ 2+ 2+

evaluated. The studied ions are Fe" , Mn , Co and Zn

with H exchange. The s tudies on effect of temperature show

tha t the r a t e of exchange increases as the temperature increases .

Besides the temperature the exchange also depends upon the

pa r t i c l e diameter and time.

The las t chapter i , e , the V chapter describes the

synthesis , propert ies and applicat ions of a new inorganic anion

exchanger, f e r r i c t r ie thylamine . Ion exchange capaci ty ,

composition, chemical s t a b i l i t y , effect of heat on capaci ty ,

pH-metric t i t r a t i o n s have been studied to character ize the new

ma te r i a l . IR studies have been made t o confirm^ the presence of

various groups. Dis t r ibut ion studies for 17 common anions have

been made. The u t i l i t y of the exchanger has been explored by

achieving some ana ly t i ca l ly important separat ions .

Ion Exchange Equilibria between Alkali Met"Is and Hydrogen Ions on Iron(III) Antimonate, an Inorganic Ion Exchanger

J. P. RAWAT and B. SINGH

Depaitment of Chemistry, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh-202001 India

(Received July 19, 1982)

Ion exchange equilibria of alkali metal ioiib (Li"", Na", K' and Rb ' ) 'H ' systems have been studied at 30, 40, 50, and 60 °C; on iron(III) antimoiialc as a cation exchanger. The exchange isotherms have been measured for both forward and backward reac'tions with solutions of ionic strengtii 0.1 by the batch technique. The iso­therms showed S-shapcd curves for each exc' ige system except Li' Tl*. Selectivity coefficients vary with the

ec|uivalent fraction {X\\) of the alkali metal ions in the exchanger and give linear functions against Xy^ in the range from 0—0.40. The selcctivit\ .sequence shows Na^ < L i ' < K ' < R b ' . 'I'hc overall thermodynamic data arc evaluated.

Syntliclic inorganic ion cxrhangcr.s have been de­veloped in recent years. The primary aim of most of tlic studies done in this field has [)een to achieve the separations. Besides the preparation of new ma­terials and their applications to tlie separations interest lias also been developed towards the study of ion exchange equilibria on these materials. Because of their thermal stability, their rigid structure and con­sequently negligible swelling, the ion exchange equi­librium studies at different temperatures on these materials will be simpler than on organic ion exchange resins which swell quite appreciably and are prone to thermal instability. The contributions of Larsen Vissers,!' Ruvarac,^^ Amphiett,^' Alberti,^^ Xancollas & Dyer^' are noteworthy in this fieTd. • Recently Abe and Sudoh""') described the ion exchange equilibrium studies on antimonic acid for the systems of transition metal ions/H'*" and from these results the appropriate thermodynamic data were derived.

The influence of temperature on the equilibrium between alkaline earth metal ions and hydrogen ion on tantalum arsenate has been described in our earlier paper.*) Similar studies on the equilibria between alkaline earth metal ions and sodium ion on iron(III) antimonate have also been described.^' The ion ex­change characteristics of iron(III) antimonate are of considerable interest since it behaves as a cation ex­changer with different selectivitics for cations.^"'

Limiting our attention to series of ions belonging (o the OTne group of the periodic table, that is having the same valency and similar electronic structure, we can study the effects of ion size and hydration upon equilibria eliminating the problem of the influence of eletronic and valency differences. Alkali metal ions can be taken as models for metal ions since they have univalent positive charge. Furthermore, they form inoic bonds and the effect of complex formation can be avoided.

Exper imenta l

The iron(III) antimonate was prepared as desci'ibed jjre-viously.

Determination nf Maximum Uptake of Alkali Metal Ion<: on Iron(III) Antimonate. A 0.1 mol dm •' solution of alkali metal chloride was passed continuously through the iron(III) antimonate column in H*- form until the change in concen­tration of the alkali metal ion was negligible between the influent and effluent. The equivalent fraction of H' and

M' in iron(TlI) antimonate was calculated on the basis of total exchangi: capacity.

hn Exchange EqtiiUlnia. In the forward rcaction.s the iron(III) antimonate (0.5 g'> in H* form was immersed in 20 cm'' of a mixed solution of varying ratio of alkali metal chloride/hydrochloric acid in the conical flasks with inter­mittent shaking at 30±1, 40±1 , 50± 1 and 60±1 ''C. The ionic strength in the mixed solution was adjusted to 0.1 with hydrochloric acid.

In the reverse reactions the ion exchanger iron(III) anti­monate in the respective alkali metal forms corresponding in weight (0.5 g in the hydrogen form) was immersed in the 20 cnr' of the mixed solution of alkali metal chloride/ hydrochloric acid at an ionic strength of 0.1.

Theoretical Aspects. The ion exchange reactions of the univalent alkali metal ions/H"" exchange systems on iron(III) antimonate can be represented by the following expression;

H+ : M ' :;=± M*- + H+, (1)

where the bar refers to iron(III) antimonate phase and M+ is the alkali metal ion.

The corrected selectivity coefficient of the above reaction can be defined as:

(2)

where K^ is the corrected selectivity coefficient. X<i and

Xji arc the equivalent fractions of the metal and H+ in the exchanger phase, respectively. X^ and X^f are the equiv­alent fractions of exchanging H+ and M' in the solution phase, respectively. 7,1 and >>,( the activity coefficients of hydrogen and die metal in solution respectively. For dilute concentrations the contribution of the activity coefficient ratio (;',, y^j) may be taken as unity.

The thermodynamic equilibrium constant JTa can be cal­culated using the simplified form of the expression given by Gain.s and Thomas (II) :

In K, -- r In K^dXyi. (3)

The change in the free energy of the ion exchange reaction, AC^ was calculated from the thermodynamic equilibrium constant A'l using the expression:

AG" - -RTlnK,. (4)

The standard enthalpy change, AW° has been calculated from the plot of log/fa against 1/T.

The standard entropy change, AiS"" is then calculated by the relation:

AG" - A / / ' - TAS° (5)

The selectivity of the cxciiangcr can he measured in terms of 7\',,, whlcli is the quantitative measure of the jjrefernce of the exchanger for one ion over another in sohuion with it.

From these values the hypothetical thermodynamic data were calculated by the similar treatment as for the overall equilibrium constants. The accuracy of these values may be higher than those of the latter. The calculated {AH°)X^->0 values indicate that there is no enthalpy change in the reaction when metal ion concentration
