Abstract

In this study, a TiO2 adsorbent powder was synthesized from Titan (IV)-n-propoxyallyl acetoacetate by the sol-gel process. This powder and its coated forms (SH-and NH2- functional silanes) were investigated for their phenol, p-chlorophenol, Cu2+, Ph2+ and Zn2+ adsorption. It was found that Pb2+ and Zn2+ adsorption on the adsorbent coated with NH2-functional silane and Cu2+, Pb2+ adsorption on the adsorbent coated with SH-functional silane were nearly complete.
