Abstract: | Copolymers of aniline and o-phenylenediamine/kaolinite composites were synthesized by 5:1 molar ratios of the respective monomers with different percentages of nanoclay via modified in situ chemical co-polymerization. The results were verified by measuring the FT-IR and UV–vis absorption spectra for PANI-o-PDA/kaolinite composites. The thermal behaviour of the copolymer and composites was studied. PANI-o-PDA/kaolinite composites were thermally more stable than pure copolymer. Surface morphology of copolymer composites was recorded at different magnification power by SEM which revealed whitish micrometric beads distributed all over the field with particle size in the range of 0.122–0.233 μm. This work demonstrates that the PANI-o-PDA/kaolinite composites particles can be considered as potential adsorbents for hazardous and toxic metal ions of water from lake El-Manzala, Egypt. All of Cd(II), Cu(II), and Pb(II) posed dangerous health risk to the local population via fish consumption. |
