Tailored ion imprinted polymer materials for the preconcentrative separation of noble metals. This study deals with the synthesis, separation,characterization and analytical application of the noble metals especially palladium and platinum. Platinum group metals(PGM) are currently receiving world wide attention. This group include Palladium(Pt),rhodium(Rh), ruthenium(Ru), iridium(Ir) and osmium(Os).PGM are used as catalysts for a wide variety of hydrogenation, oxidation, isomerization,cyclization,dehydrogenation and dehalogenation reactions.The corrosion resistance of PGM enables them to use in jewellery,electrical and glass industries,extrusion of synthetic fibres,manufacture of laboratory utensils,dental and medical devices. This study clearly establishes selective recovery of platinum from other noble and transition elements. |
