Preparation of Adsorbents Based on Dendrimer Modified Silica Gel and its Adsorption Performances for Lead

Abstract:

A new sorbent (PAMAM4.0GASG) with gallic acid as functional group has been prepared based on G4.0 polyamidoamine dendrimer modified silica gel (PAMAM4.0SG) and characterized with FTIR. It was employed for selective separation, preconcentration and determination of lead in different samples by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). Experimental conditions for effective separation and preconcentration of lead were optimized. The preconcentration factor reaches 200 for lead. The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) under optimum conditions was 2.1% for 5.0 μg ml¹ of Pb (II).The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) was 2.1% for 5.0 μg ml¹ of Pb (II). The limit of detection (LOD) of 0.081μg ml¹ was achieved with a sample loading flow rate of 4.2 ml min¹ and a 10 ml sample volume in the proposed method. The proposed column enrichment method was applied for the preconcentration/separation and determination of Pb (II) in tap water and river water samples successfully.
