Abstract: | The present work concerns a development of new membranes for performing ions separation. These membranes were prepared by solution casting followed by solvent evaporation, using a commercial cellulose triacetate (CTA), synthesized poly (N,N‐dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate), macrocylic polyethers (15‐crown‐5 and Dibenzo‐24‐crown‐8) as carrier and dioctylphtalate as plasticizer. Different Polymer Inclusion Membranes were characterized using physical and chemical techniques as well as Fourier transform infrared, thermogravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. Transport of lead and cadmium in aqueous solution has been studied using these systems. The selective separation of these membranes is accomplished by the presence of specific compounds, called carriers, in the membrane phase. The carriers are responsible to facilitate the transport of the target component across selective membranes. The influence of the membrane nature has been studied using some supports of different physical characteristics. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2018 , 135, 46592. |
