Sorption studies of heavy metal ions by salicylic acid–formaldehyde–catechol terpolymeric resin: Isotherm, kinetic and thermodynamics

Terpolymeric resin has been synthesized by condensing salicylic acid with catechol employing formaldehyde as a cross linking agent at 80 ± 5 °C using DMF as a solvent. The resin was characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, XRD and thermal analysis (TGA, DTA and DTG). The morphology of the resin wa...
