ABSTRACT
The adsorption of two dextrin-based polymers, a regular wheat dextrin (TY) and a carboxymethyl-substituted (CM) dextrin, onto an anatase TiO(2) particle film has been studied using in situ attenuated total reflection (ATR) FTIR spectroscopy. Infrared spectra of the polymer solutions and the polymer adsorbed at the anatase surface were acquired for two solution conditions pH 3 and pH 9; below and above the isoelectric point (IEP) of anatase, respectively. Comparison of the polymer solution spectra and the adsorbed layer spectra highlighted a number of spectral differences that were attributed to involvement of the carboxyl group of CM Dextrin interacting with the anatase surface directly and the adsorption of oxidized dextrin chains in the case of regular dextrin (TY) at high pH. The adsorption/desorption kinetics were determined by monitoring spectral peaks of the pyranose ring of both polymers. Adsorption equilibrium was not established for Dextrin TY for many hours, whereas CM Dextrin reached equilibrium in its adsorption within 60 min. The extent of desorption of Dextrin TY (observed by flowing a background electrolyte dextrin-free solution) was extensive at both pH values, which reflects the poor affinity and binding of the polymer on anatase. In contrast, CM Dextrin underwent almost no desorption, indicating a high affinity between the carboxyl groups of the polymer and the anatase surface.
