Abstract

The naturally available guar was made to react with epichlorohydrin to yield guar epoxy dithizone which in turn was reacted with dithizone to yield guar epoxy dithizone (GED). The characterization of GED was done using FT-IR, NMR, XRD, Mass spectrometry and elemental analysis techniques. Swelling and water regain capacity, moisture content, bulk density, bulk volume, total ion exchange capacity, effects of pH and treatment time were also studied. The heavy metal ion uptake efficiency was found to be in the order, Zn+2 > Cu+2 > Pb+2 > Fe+2 > Cd+2
