Resumen
In this work Chitosan (Ch) was chemically modified with ethylenesulfide (Es) under solvent-free conditions to give (ChEs), displaying a high content of thiol groups due to opening of the three member cyclic reagent. ChEs was used in studies of lead and cadmium adsorption from aqueous solution, using the batchwise method and calorimetric studies were accomplished to those interactions, through the calorimetric titration technique. The obtained results show that the modified Ch, ChEs is a material, that besides presenting the advantages of being a biopolymer, it showed a good adsorption capacity of the lead and cadmium cation metallic, that are extremely poisonous and harmful to the environment. The results of the calorimetric titration showed that the related thermodynamic parameters to those adsorptions shown favorable thermodynamic data. 106 2 369 373
