Abstract

Grafting copolymerization of glycidyl methacrylate (2, 3 epoxy propyl methacrylate-EPMA) onto jute fiber by pre-irradiation method has been studied. The different factors influenced on grafting degree (GD) such as the monomer concentration, reaction time and absorbed dose were also investigated. The optimal GD was found to be 121% at EPMA concentration of 20% and the absorbed dose of 12.5 kGy for 7 hours at 80oC. Grafted jute fiber was treated with ethylene diamine (EDA) to form functional groups, which can be easily adsorbed direct dyes or metal ions. Adsorption capacities (Qmax) of the resultant jute fiber were determined to be 77.519 mg/g, 78.740 mg/g and 1.298 mmol/g or 0.459 mg/g for Direct Blue, Direct Yellow and Potassium dichromate or Cr(VI) respectively as calculated with model of Langmuir isotherm. The characteristics of modified jute fiber were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Values of BOD5, COD and the content of dye in textile waste water of Nam Thanh factory decreased after treating by modified fiber
