Abstract
The reaction of poly(vinyl chloride) containing N‐methyl dithiocarbamate (PMD) with metal ions in a heterogeneous system and the effect of γ‐irradiation on the reactivity were studied. PMD powder suspended in aqueous solutions did not show any reactivity toward metal ions. However, the PMD powder suspended in a methyl alcohol solution formed a chelate with various metal ions. The effects of the reaction time, pH, and the initial concentration of the metal ion were examined. PMD irradiated in methyl alcohol with γ‐irradiation doses up to 28 Mrad was compared with the original PMD. The reactivity of the irradiated PMD toward the metal ions did not show any apparent decrease.Keywords
