BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING

  • A- represents tlie anionic component of au acid species which may be an inorganic acid such as HCl or H 2 SO 4 , or an organic carboxylic acid.
  • the process for producing the selective ion exchange paper employed in the present invention starts with the preparation of an aqueous treatment solution containing dissolved PEL
  • a preferred concentration of PEI in the solution is in the range of 2% to 8%, producing an initial solution pH of about 12, It has been found that concentrations below 2% yield inadequate ion exchange functionality in a cellulose paper substrate. At concentrations above about 8%, it has been found that most of the PEI remains unreacted, presumably because of an absence of accepting reactive sites remaining in the cellulose.
  • the PEI-containing treatment solution is then treated with a strong mineral acid, preferably HCl, to produce protonated PEI and consequent solution pH in the range of about 4.5 to 6.8.
  • a strong mineral acid preferably HCl

  • reaction with cellulose has been found to be inefficient.
  • an organic polycarboxylic acid may be dissolved into the treatment solution prior to said treatment with a mineral acid. The ultimate effect of the polycarboxylic acid is to cross link PEI chains attached to the cellulose to produce a stabilized add-on.

Abstract

Selon la présente invention, des lambeaux de papier cellulosique traité sont assemblés de façon aléatoire sous la forme d'une agrégation qui permet le passage d'eau. Le papier contient une fonctionnalité chimique qui absorbe sélectivement des espèces métalliques ioniques dissoutes à partir de l'eau. Cette invention est basée en partie sur la découverte qu'une forme protonée de PEI, créée par ajout d'une espèce acide à PEI (pour obtenir un pH dans la plage de 4,5 à 6,8), peut subir une réaction chimique thermiquement induite avec la cellulose pour conférer des propriétés d'échange d'ions sans décomposition. En outre, en utilisant PEI ayant un poids moléculaire exceptionnellement élevé, des substrats de cellulose traités ainsi, en particulier du papier et de la pâte à papier, ont une capacité d'échange d'ions pour avoir une valeur commerciale ; par exemple, et sans limitation, ils peuvent être déchiquetés et formés en agrégats présentant des performances spécialisées dans des opérations d'absorption sur lit fixe.
