A new four component nano sized tin zirconium molybdophosphate, an inorganic ion exchanger of the class of tetravalent metal acid (TMA) salts has been synthesized by co-precipitation method and its ion exchange behaviour was studied. Characterization of the exchanger was done by ICP-AES method and structural studies were carried out using TGA, XRD and FTIR. From the XRD pattern studies, the synthesized ion exchanger was found to be size of 70- 75 nm. The sodium exchange capacity of material was found to be 3.92meq/g. The chemical resistivity of the material has been assessed in various acids, bases and organic solvents like 1M HNO3, IM H2SO4, acetic acid etc. The effects of temperature on capacity, effect of electrolyte concentration and analytical applications also were studied. The protons of hydroxyl groups were found to be the active site. The distribution coefficients of different metal ions like Pb2+, Cu2+, Co2+, Cd2+, Mn2+, Zn2+, Mg2+, Bi3+, Hg2+, Ni2+, Th4+, Ca2+ were studied. On the basis of distribution studies, it was found that the exchanger has high affinity towards Pb2+ and Cu2+ compared with other metal ions. Due to its high affinity towards copper metal ion, it can be used as copper scavenger for waste water treatment and its binary separation of Cu2+ from Mn2+, Mg2+, Cd2+ and Ni2+ was carried out. The UV- Visible Spectrophotometer model JASCO V660 with diffuse reflectance accessories is used to study the absorption of the copper ion on the ion exchange.
