Alginate Polyelectrolyte Ionotropic Gels-XVI. Kinetics and Chemical Equilibria Studies for Heterogeneous Ion Exchange of Polyvalent Metal Ions in Alginate Gel Complexes
The kinetics or chemical equilibria of exchange of Ca(II), Sr(II), Ba(I), Zn(II), Cd(II), Al(III), Fe(III), Se(IV), Ce(IV) and Th(IV) counter ions in alginate gel complexes by H+ ions have been investigated titrimetrically and conductimetrically at a constant ionic strength of 0.1 mol/dm3. The thermodynamic parameters have been evaluated and are discussed in terms of ionic radii and polarizability of the metal ions, coordination geometry, and stability of the gel complexes.
