RESUMO

This manuscript describes the synthesis of three polymers based on styrene (STY), divinylbenzene (DVB) and two different vinyl monomers: methyl methacrylate (MMA) and acrylonitrile (AN). The STY-DVB, STY-DVB-MMA and STY-DVB-AN polymers were synthesized employing the aqueous suspension technique. Reaction yields were 73%, 81% and 75%, respectively. They were morphological and chemically characterized using different techniques. The extraction capacity of the polymers was evaluated using 2-chlorophenol. The polymer extraction capacities were evaluated varying contact time the (1 h, 3 h and 5 h), temperature (30 °C, 35 °C and 40 °C), and pH (3, 5.6 and 8). The STY-DVB-AN polymer was the most efficient; it removed around 95% of the analyte using a contact time 50 h.
