Poly(acrylonitrile-co-acrylic acid) (PANCAA) was synthesized and fabricated into nanofibrous membranes by an electrospinning technique. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that membranes composed of uniformly thin and smooth nanofibres were obtained under optimized processing parameters. Surface modification with chitosan on these nanofibrous membranes was accomplished by a coupling reaction between the carboxylic groups of PANCAA and the primary amino groups of chitosan. Fluorescent labelling, weight measurement, FT-IR/ATR spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to confirm the modification process and determine the immobilization degree of chitosan. Platelet adhesion experiments were further carried out to evaluate the hemocompatibility of the studied nanofibrous membranes. Preliminary results indicated that the immobilization of chitosan on the PANCAA nanofibrous membranes was favourable for platelet adhesion.

In this study, simultaneous adsorption of cationic dyes was investigated by using binary component solutions. Thiourea-modified poly(acrylonitrile-co-acrylic acid) (TMPAA) polymer was used as an adsorbent for uptake of cationic dyes (malachite green, MG and methylene blue, MB) from aqueous solution in a binary system. Adsorption tests revealed that TMPAA presented high adsorption of MG and MB at higher pH and higher dye concentrations. It suggested that there are strong electrostatic attractions between the surface functional groups of the adsorbent and cationic dyes. The equilibrium analyses explain that both extended Langmuir and extended models are suitable for the description of adsorption data in the binary system. An antagonistic effect was found, probably due to triangular (MG) and linear (MB) molecular structures that mutually hinder the adsorption of both dyes on TMPAA. Besides, the kinetic studies for sorption of MG and MB dyes onto adsorbent were better represented by a pseudo-second-order model, which demonstrates chemisorption between the polymeric TMPAA adsorbent and dye molecules. According to experimental findings, TMPAA is an attractive adsorbent for treatment of wastewater containing multiple cationic dyes.

Thiourea-modified poly(acrylonitrile-co-acrylic acid) (TU-poly(AN-co-AA)) polymeric adsorbent was synthesized and characterized with Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Zetasizer. Adsorptive removal of cationic malachite green (MG) dye from aqueous solution in a continuous TU-poly(AN-coAA) packed-bed column was studied. The influences of solution pH (2-9), inlet MG concentration (25-80 mg/L), bed depth (4-8 cm) and linear flow rate (1.5-5.0 mL/min) were investigated via assessment of the column breakthrough curves. Low pH and short bed depth, high MG concentration and flow rate led to early breakthrough of MG. According to correlation coefficients (R2) and sum of the squares of the errors (SSE) values, Thomas and Yoon-Nelson dynamic models are more suitable to describe the column experimental data compared to the Bohart-Adams model. TU-poly(AN-co-AA) exhibited effective separation of MG from the liquid phase and displayed high adsorption capacities after five regeneration cycles.
