The possible removal of copper(II), nickel(II), or lead(II) by an insoluble crosslinked poly(acrylic acid) was investigated in dilute aqueous solution. The binding properties of the polymer were examined at pH = 6.0 or 4.0 with an ionic strength of the medium µ = 0.1 or 1.0 M (NaNO3) using differential pulse polarography as an investigation means. The highest complexing capacity of the polyacid was obtained with lead(II) at pH = 6.0 with µ = 0.1 M, 4.8 mmol Pb(II)/g polymer. The conditional stability constants of the complex species formed were determined using the method proposed by Ruzic assuming that only the 1:1 complex species was formed; for lead(II) at pH = 6.0 and µ = 0.1 M, log K' = 5.3 ± 0.2. It appeared that the binding properties of the polymer increased, depending on the metal ion, in the following order: Ni(II) < Cu(II) < Pb(II). The complexing capacity and log K' values decreased with the pH or with an increase of the ionic strength. These results were in agreement with the conclusions of our previous studies of the hydrosoluble linear analogues. Finally, with the insoluble polymer, the log K' values were comparable to those previously obtained with the linear analogue whereas the complexing capacity values expressed in mmol g-1 were slightly lower.Key words: insoluble crosslinked poly(acrylic acid), copper(II), nickel(II), and lead(II) complexation.

Cadmium(II) or lead(II) complex formation with an insoluble cross-linked poly(acrylic acid) was investigated in dilute aqueous solution (NaNO3 0.1 M, 25°C). Potentiometric titrations were carried out to determine the stability constants of the MA and MA2 complex species formed. The Bjerrum's method, modified by Gregor et al. (1955), for the study of polymeric acids was used. The results obtained showed that lead(II) was more readily bound to the polymer. PbA2 was the predominant species; the global stability constant log B102 was equal to 7.4. With cadmium(II), none of the complex species MA or MA2 was predominant (log B102 = 6.0). Finally, the comparison of these results with those of our previous studies showed that the insoluble cross-linked poly(acrylic acid) and its hydrosoluble linear analogues present similar complexing properties towards cadmium(II), lead(II), copper(II), and nickel(II).Key words: insoluble cross-linked poly(acrylic acid), cadmium(II), lead(II), complexation, potentiometry.

A mixed aqueous solution of hydrophilic poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) (PMPC) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAAc) becomes cloudy under acidic conditions at room temperature. The pendant carboxylic acid groups in PAAc form hydrogen bonds with the ester and phosphate groups in PMPC. While the polymers aggregate under acidic conditions, neither one associate under basic conditions because of the deprotonation of the pendant carboxy groups in PAAc. We observed that the interpolymer complex formed from PMPC, and PAAc was dissociated in aqueous solutions with increasing temperature, which is an upper critical solution temperature behavior. With increasing temperature, the molecular motion increased to dissociate the interpolymer complex. The phase transition temperature increased with increasing polymer and salt concentrations, and with decreasing pH.
