INVESTIGATION ON THE FACTORS INFLUENCING THE MECHANISM OF THE ALKALINE SORPTION ON THE SURFACE OF TITANIUM PHOSPHATE SORBENT

Abstract

Studies were made on clarifying of the sorption mechanism on the surface of amorphous titanium phosphate inorganic sorbent determining the "dissolving" values, specific surface area and pore distribution. The pore distribution has changed under the effect of the eluent. The selectivity observed for this type of the titanium phosphate is not connected with the macroscopic surface structure and geometry but rather with the geometry of the active sites.
