Compared with the commercial hypercrosslinked adsorbent NDA-100 and macroporous adsorbent XAD-4 resins, the newly synthesized poly(vinylpyridine) WH-225 resin exhibited the highest adsorption capacity toward SIPA from aqueous solution. # 2008 Chao Long.

Keywords: Vinylpyridine resin; 5-Sodiosulfoisophthalic acids (SIPA); Adsorption Removal of organic pollutants from the aquatic environment has received increasing attention. The use of synthetic resins as polymeric adsorbents for this purpose is important not only in the protection of the environment from pollution but also in the effective use of raw materials, because the resins can be regenerated and the organic pollutants
