Abstract: There are three new grades biodegradable Pentaerythritol Xanthate (PEX) based co-polymeric Hydrogels (PEXHs), were synthesized for the effective removal of toxic metal ions from wastewater. Such novel eco-friendly PEXHs were prepared from the synthesised PEX and the resulting hydrogels were have been confirmed by FTIR, UV-Visible spectroscopy. The synthesized hydrogels were utilized for the removal of toxic metal ions from wastewater such as Co2+ and Ni2+ ions that quantitatively determined with the help of UV- 1900i spectrometer (Shimadzu Corporation Japan).These results show that synthesized hydrogels act as excellent adsorbents for the removal of metal ions in comparison to many other adsorbents reported earlier in the literature.
