Separation and preconcentration trace amounts of gold by using modified organo nanoclay closite 15A
The application of organo nanoclay 5-(4-dimethylamino-benzylidene) rhodanine-immobilized as a new, easily prepared, and stable solid sorbent for preconcentration trace amounts of Au(III) ions in aqueous solution is presented. The sorption of Au(III) ions was quantitative in the pH range of 2-4, and quantitative desorption occurred instantaneously with 10.0 mL of a mixture containing 0.5 mol L-1 Na2S2O3 and KSCN. Various parameters, such as the effect of pH, breakthrough volume, extraction time, and interference of a large number of anions and cations have been studied. The proposed method has been applied for determination of trace amount of gold in water samples.
