Abstract
Chitosan was selectively N-nonanoylated, and the influence of the long acyl groups on the adsorption of copper (II) ion was studied. The acylation with nonanoyl chloride was achieved efficiently on a highly swelled chitosan precipitate. The adsorption capacity could be improved markedly by a small extent of acylation.Keywords
