Preparation and Characterization of Composite for Toluene Removal from Water

Abstract:

In our study, a new kind of material for toluene adsorption was prepared by melt blending with EPDM as the matrix and waste dusty slag as the filler. The effects of dicumylperoxide (DCP) and waste dusty slag contents on the toluene absorbency were studied. The results show that the toluene absorbency reaches the highest value 388.11 % for the composite with 2 wt % DCP and 30 wt % waste dusty slag. Comparing the toluene absorbency for three samples, the experimental result indicates that the toluene absorbency of waste dusty slag /EPDM composite was higher than that of EPDM (crosslinked) and EPDM
