SORPTION OF Cu(II) BY POLY(HYDROXAMIC ACID) CHELATING EXCHANGER PREPARED FROM POL(YMETHYL ACRYLATE) GRAFTED OIL PALM EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH (OPEFB)
This paper describes the preparation of chemically modified oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) with hydroxamic acid functional group and its use for the sorption of Cu(II) from aqueous solution. OPEFB was grafted with poly(methylacrylate) (PMA), using H2O2/Fe2+ as initiator. The PMA grafted OPEFB...
