Abstract

An efficient adsorbent for Cu (II) removal from aqueous solution was synthesized by grafting amino group onto jute fiber. The fiber was chemically modified by two steps, loading of epoxy chloropropane and triethylenetetramine. Properties of the modified jute such as surface chemical structure, tensile strength and adsorption capacity on different environmental conditions were conducted. The results show that the ad-sorption capacity of the modified jute on Cu (II) is 120.048mg.g-1 at 30 , and the modified jute has strong anti-interference ability.
