Synthesis, characterization and application of zirconiamodified poly(styrene-divinyl benzene) adsorbents

Poly(styrene-divinyl benzene) (PS-DVB) resin is an attractive adsorbent for extraction and separation of various types of compounds due to its stability over the pH range of 1-14. However, PS-DVB resin is known to have hydrophobic surfaces that highly retain non-polar compounds while poorly retain p...
