Abstract

Intercalated and exfoliated montmorillonite/amidoximated polyacrylonitrile (IAPAN/Mont and EAPAN/Mont) were prepared by using in situ polymerization technique. Intercalated Mont/APAN was obtained through polymerization with organ-montmorillonite and acrylonitrile. However, it became exfoliated when using Na-montmorillonite as a reactant. XRD, FT-IR, and CHN analysis were performed and the results showed the successful synthesis of the two materials. Adsorption of uranyl by using the new prepared materials was also conducted. The results showed that excellent adsorption capacity of 634mg/g and 543mg/g at 27 using IAPAN/Mont and EAPAN/Mont respectively, were obtained.
