Abstract

Abstract Metal complexes of 8-hydroxyquinoline and polymeric water-insoluble but water-swellable cross-linked N-vinyllactam or N-alkyl-N-vinylamide polymers in the form of porous beads or granules and a process for preparing same. Such complexes are particularly suited for use as algicides, fungicides, slimicides, and bacteriocides in the treatment of water such as in gravity filtration systems, canisters or packed columns having the advantage of rapid throughput. The complexes may be prepared by adsorbing the hydroxyquinoline onto the cross-linked N-vinyllactam or N-alkyl-N-vinylamide in the form of porous beads or porous granules and subsequently forming the metallic complex in solution.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 61 words
A complex formed by reacting 8-hydroxyquinoline and a water-insoluble but water swellable cross-linked polymer selected from the group consisting of N-vinyllactam or N-alkyl-N-vinylamide monomers, said polymer being in the form of porous beads or granules, to form a complex therebetween and thereafter reacting said complex with a metallic salt to form a complex between the metallic salt and said polymer complex.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 61 words
A complex formed by reacting 8-hydroxyquinoline and a water-insoluble but water swellable cross-linked polymer selected from the group consisting of N-vinyllactam or N-alkyl-N-vinylamide monomers, said polymer being in the form of porous beads or granules, to form a complex therebetween and thereafter reacting said complex with a metallic salt to form a complex between the metallic salt and said polymer complex.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 69 words
The complex of claim 1 wherein said N-vinyl lactam monomer is selected from those having the formula ##STR4## wherein R 1 and R 2 are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl and aryl; Y is selected from the group consisting of ##STR5## and n and n 1 are integers from 0 to 5, with the proviso that only one of n and n 1 may be zero.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 11 words
The complex of claim 2 wherein said N-vinyllactam monomer is N-vinylpyrrolidone.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 32 words
