Strong-base anion exchangers

Strong"Base. Strong base anion-exchange resins have quaternary ammonium groups, - NR OH , where R is usually CH, as the functional exchange sites (see Quaternary ammonium compounds). These resins are used most frequentiy in the hydroxide form for acidity reduction. 

Strong Base Anion Exchangers. As ia the synthesis of weak base anion exchangers, strong base resias are manufactured from styrenic as well as acryhc copolymers. Those based on copolymers of styrene and divinylben2ene are chloromethylated and then aminated. These reactions are the same as for the styrenic weakbase resias. The esseatial differeace is the amine used for amination. Trimethyl amine [75-50-3] N(CH2)3, and /V, /V- dim ethyl eth a n ol amine [108-01 -0] (CH2)2NCH2CH20H, are most commonly used. Both form quaternary ammonium functional groups similar to (8). 

Eig. 5. Pressure drop as affected by resin type, flow rate, and temperature, where A, B, and C, correspond respectively to acryUc strong base anion exchanger (Amberlite IRA-458), styrenic strong base anion exchanger (Amberlite IRA-402), and styrenic strong acid cation exchanger (Amberlite IR-120), all at 4°C. D represents styrenic strong acid cation resin (Amberlite IR-120) at 50°C (14). To convert kg/(cm -m) to lb/(in. -ft), multiply by 4.33 to convert... 

When strong acid cation exchangers are used in the Na" form and strong base anion exchangers are used in the CL form, they are regenerated with a 10% sodium chloride [7647-14-5], NaCl, solution. Other concentrations may be used, perhaps with some adjustment in flow rate. 

Boron Removal. Boron [7440-42-8] is occasionaHy present in water suppHes at an unacceptable level. It cannot be removed with the standard anion-exchange resins unless the water is deionized. Selective removal is possible by using an anion exchanger functionalized with /V-methy1g1ucamine [6284-40-8]. This resin is in limited commercial supply. The borate form of conventional strong base anion exchangers is used in some nuclear reactors to adjust the concentration of boron in water used as a moderator. The resin releases boron as the water temperature rises. 

Uranium ores are leached with dilute sulfuric acid or an alkaline carbonate [3812-32-6] solution. Hexavalent uranium forms anionic complexes, such as uranyl sulfate [56959-61-6], U02(S0 3, which are more selectively adsorbed by strong base anion exchangers than are other anions in the leach Hquors. Sulfate complexes are eluted with an acidified NaCl or ammonium nitrate [6484-52-2], NH NO, solution. Carbonate complexes are eluted with a neutral brine solution. Uranium is precipitated from the eluent and shipped to other locations for enrichment. Columnar recovery systems were popular in South Africa and Canada. Continuous resin-in-pulp (RIP) systems gained popularity in the United States since they eliminated a difficult and cosdy ore particle/leach hquor separation step.

In IC this problem of electrolyte background is overcome by means of eluant suppression. Thus in the above example of sodium and potassium analysis, if the effluent from the separating column is passed through a strong base anion exchange resin in the hydroxide form (suppressor column) the following two processes occur ... 

Krishnamoorthy and Iyer [105] have reported a method for determining nanogram levels of iodide in saline water samples containing a large excess of interfering chloride ions. The anions are first bound to a strong base anion exchanger, from which the chloride ion is readily eluted. The iodide is then eluted with 2 M ammonium nitrate and the iodide is determined based on its catalytic effect on the reduction of cerium (IV) by arsenic (III). The method is claimed to have an accuracy comparable to that obtained by NAA.
