    Abstract:
    In this paper a new bifunctional polymeric resin (LS-2) was synthesized by introducing sulfonic groups onto the surface of the resin during the post-crossing of chloromethyl low crosslinking macroporous poly-styrene resin, and the comparison of the adsorption properties of LS-2 with Amberlite XAD-4 toward aniline and 4-methylaniline in aqueous solutions was made. The study focuses on the static equilibrium adsorption behaviors, the adsorption thermodynamics, and the column dynamic adsorption and desorption profiles. Freundlich model gives a perfect fitting to the isotherm data. Although the specific surface area of LS-2 is lower than that of Amberlite XAD-4, the adsorbing capacities for these two adsorbates on LS-2 are higher than those on Amberlite XAD-4 within the temperature range 288-318 K, which is contributed to microporous structure and the polar groups on the network of LS-2 resins. The adsorption for aniline or 4-methylaniline on LS-2 was proved to be an endothermic process and increasing temperature was favorable. From the studies on the adsorption thermodynamics, static equilibrium adsorption, and the desorption conditions, an important conclusion can be drawn that the adsorption for aniline or 4-methylaniline on the LS-2 is a coexistence process of physical adsorption and chemical transition.
