Poly(N-methylaniline) (PNMA) composite composed of N-methylaniline and poly(ethanol) was prepared by in situ polymerization technique and characterized using FTIR, SEM-EDS and XRD instruments. Characterization of product revealed that this composite is crystalline in nature and the particles size is less than100 nm. The potential of this composite in removal of Cr(VI) ions from synthetic aqueous effluents was investigated by batch sorption system. The experimental results confirmed that this adsorbent has the potential application for removal of Cr(VI) ions from aqueous solution with the sorption capacity of 125 mg/g of Cr(VI)/0.1 g of adsorbent.
