Film Of Chitosan-Carboxymethyl Cellulose Polyelectrolyte Complex as Methylene Blue Adsorbent

Journal Title: Eksakta: Jurnal Ilmu-Ilmu MIPA - Year 2016, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

The chitosan-carboxymethyl cellulose polyelectrolyte complex film have been synthesized. This films was used study the effect of volume ratio CMC:chitosan (1:1; 3:2; 7:3). The film were characterized with Tengsile Strength Tester, stability of film in the acid-base medium and the ability to adsorp water were tested. The adsorption activities of film towards methylene blue also was studied including the effect of film composition. The result showed that the mechanical properties of film decreased as carboxymetyl cellulosa increased and has stability at pH >4. The optimum condition of methylene blue adsorption of film F3 (volume ratio CMC:chitosan 7:3) with adsorption capacity at 8,38×10-5 mol/g at 30 minute.
