Peracetic acid can be catalyzed to bleach cotton fibers at temperatures as low as 30°C by incorporating 2,2î-bipyridine in the bleach solution. Treatment of the fibers with HCl prior to bleaching reduces bleaching effectiveness by removing trace transition metal ions from the fibers. Sorption of individual ions (Cr+3 Mn+2, Fe+2, Fe+3 Co+2, Ni+2, Cu+2, and Zn+2) by HCl treated cotton fibers prior to bleaching indicates that the ferrous ion produces the greatest catalytic effect, and it is only effective when the metal ion is in the fiber as opposed to in solution. Ferrous ions in the fibers sorb 2,2î-bipyridine from solution to form the tris-2,2î-bipyridine ferrous ion complex that is associated with the fibers, and it is the trischelate associated with the fibers that catalyzes bleaching. The effects of pH, temperature, and concentrations of 2,2î-bipyridine, sodium lauryl sulfate, and transition metal ions (in the fibers and in solution) on bleaching effectiveness and peracetic acid decomposition have been studied, and a bleaching mechanism is proposed.

The exchange behaviour of some divalent transition metal ions M2+ (Zn2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Mn2+) in a zeolite NaX (SiO2/Al2O3 2.75) was studied at intermediate stages before equilibrium. The equivalent counter ion supply in the solution, given by the equivalent ratio of the two counter ions 2M2+/Na+, was found to be critical in determining the saturation level of exchange. The series of relative abilities of exchange was very similar to the well known selectivity series at equilibrium. It is suggested that water exchange of the metal ions in solution could be one of the factors controlling the relative ease of ion exchange.
