Correlation between Na-Cs Ion Exchange Properties in the Alkaline Form and Acid Strength in the Proton Form of Zeolite.

ABSTRACT: The ion exchange function of zeolite is useful for such a purpose as the removal of radioactive Cs species from water. In the very early days of zeolite science, the affinity of zeolites for metal cations was explained based on geometry. After the explanation presented above was proposed, many new zeolites and related materials were discovered or synthesized. Furthermore, it has become clear that the chemical nature of the ion exchange sites is strongly dependent on the framework topology. In this study, the ion exchange behavior between Na-form zeolites with different framework topologies and Cs-containing aqueous solutions was analyzed, and the equilibrium constant was calculated based on the Langmuir type equation to investigate the influence of the chemical nature of the zeolite framew
