Using of Iodine-Containing Fibrous Materials for Disinfection of Water from Microorganisms

Abstract

The iodine complexes based on the ion-changing polyacrylonitrile fibrous materials were obtained and their bactericidal properties were investigated. The kinetics of iodine sorption by anion-changing materials and its desorption from the obtained iodine complexes was investigated. It was shown that desorption of iodine is determined by the nature of the functional groups of the sorbent and iodine content in it. The possibility of using of the obtained iodine complexes of the anion-changing materials as filter-materials for disinfection of water-supply sources was established.
