Abstract

In this work, the adsorption and diffusion behavior of nitrate ions into polycationic P(DMAEMA/HEMA) hydrogels is analyzed. Experimental results indicated that nitrate ions can be removed efficiently from aqueous solutions. Adsorption isotherm of gels was well according to the Langmuir and Langmuir–Freundlich models. At the same time, the diffusion behavior of nitrate ions from P(DMAEMA/HEMA) hydrogels was investigated. The diffusion coefficients are strongly influenced by the changes of temperature and pH value of solutions. At the same time, D does not depend on the gels cross-linking ratio and initial solute concentration.
