Abstract

Abstract A cellulosic absorption material for the removal of heavy metal ions from fluids, which material contains at least one chelate-forming amino acid group which is bonded through the group of the formula ##STR1## to the cellulose portion wherein the carbonyl group is linked to the chelate-forming radical and the oxygen is linked to the cellulose portion.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 53 words
A cellulosic adsorption material for the removal of heavy metal ions which contains at least one chelate-forming amino acid group which is bonded through the group of the formula ##STR10## to the cellulose portion, wherein the carbonyl group is linked to the chelate-forming radical and the oxygen is linked to the cellulose portion.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 53 words
A cellulosic adsorption material for the removal of heavy metal ions which contains at least one chelate-forming amino acid group which is bonded through the group of the formula ##STR10## to the cellulose portion, wherein the carbonyl group is linked to the chelate-forming radical and the oxygen is linked to the cellulose portion.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 43 words
An adsorption material according to claim 1 wherein the modified cellulose material contains as chelate-forming group a glycine, sarcosine, iminodiacetic acid, methylaminopropionic acid, iminodipropionic acid, iminoacetic acid-propionic acid, ethanolaminoacetic acid, vinylbenzyliminodiacetic acid or ethylenediamine-N,N'-dipropionic acid group, or the alkali metal salt form thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
An adsorption material according to claim 2 wherein the modified cellulose material contains an iminodiacetic acid or iminodipropionic acid group as chelate-forming group.
