Hydrous manganese dioxide-polyacrylonitrile (MnO2-PAN) was chemically synthesized and evaluated, as an organic-inorganic composite material, for the removal of radio-contaminant cesium-137 from aqueous solutions. The physico-chemical characterization was carried out by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (Fr-IR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), CHN elemental analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nitrogen adsorption-desorption studies and thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry (TGA-DSC). Batch experiments were carried out as a function of contact time, interference of the coexisting ions and initial pH of adsorptive solution applying a radiotracer technique. The effect of temperature on the distribution coefficient of cesium has been utilized in order to evaluate the changes in the standard thermodynamic parameters. The results indicated that Cs+ ions could be efficiently removed using MnO2-PAN composite in the pH range of 4-9 from aqueous solutions and the uptake of cesium is affected to varying degrees by the presence of some diverse co-ions. The equilibrium isotherms have been determined and the sorption data were successfully modeled using Freundlich model. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
