Revolution in the Form of Polymeric Adsorbents 2: Fibers, Films, and Particles

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Innovative Polymeric Adsorbents

Abstract

Commercially available adsorbents are in the form of beads, granules, and short-length fibers. A 15-cm-diameter bobbin consisting of a fiber can be modified by radiation-induced graft polymerization. The fiber of the resultant bobbin can be fabricated into a wound filter, a nonwoven fabric, or a braid depending on the conditions of practical separation. In this chapter, examples of the application of functional fibers are the recovery of uranium from seawater using a chelating-group-immobilized fiber and the resolution of neodymium and dysprosium using an extractant-impregnated fiber. In addition, a polyethylene film is modified into ion-exchange membranes installed in an electrodialyzer for the production of edible salt.
