Different analyses such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), Kiejdahl’s and Volhard’s methods were used to characterize the synthesized resins. N-pentylamine, propylamine, and pyrrolidine were used in the investigation. The effect of chain length and cyclic amine on the performance of resins was investigated in a multicomponent system (Re & Mo). Three amine-functionalized resins were prepared by suspension polymerization of vinyl-benzyl chloride, divinylbenzene, and subsequent amination process. The results show that the ion exchanger could be employed for the preconcentration, separation and the determination.

The presence of low ionic strength or low concentration of acids does have a significant adsorption of metal ions on ion-exchange resin. The metal adsorption for the cation exchanger was found to be significant in different media for both nitric and hydrochloric acids, i.e., the adsorption up take of metal ions presented in this work is very significant depending on the characteristics of ions and on the external concentrations of solute. Batch shaking adsorption experiments to evaluate the performance of nitric and hydrochloric acid solutions in the removal of metal ions by cation exchange resin at the same conditions for both, such as the effect of initial metal ion concentration, different proportions of some organic solvents, H+-ion concentrations and reaction temperature on the partition coefficients. Removal of heavy metal ions such as Fe(III), Cd(II), Zn(II), Cu(II), Mn(II), Mg(II), and Pb(II) from water and wastewater is obligatory in order to avoid water pollution. Of the metal ions in tap, Nile, waste and sea water samples and some ores were carried out.
