Popis: Bentonite (Bnt) with covalently immobilized N-propylaminodi(methylenephosphonic) groups (Bnt-ADPA) was obtained through a two-step synthesis including aminosilanization and phosphorylation of resulting aminobentonite through Moedritzer-Irani reaction. The grafting of an aminosilane layer in the interplanar space of the bentonite was investigated by XRD, and the presence of N and P-containing groups was confirmed by FTIR, 31P and 29Si MAS NMR. The immobilization of the organic functional groups increased the interplanar distance in bentonite matrix at 52% that essentially improved filtration properties compared to raw bentonite. The number of surface acid groups was evaluated to 0.8 mmol g−1. The obtained adsorbent showed high affinity for heavy metal ions according to pH1/2 sequence Fe (III) (2.3) 97%) elimination of Pb (II) and a significant (59–65%) decrease of the amount of Cu(II) and Zn(II). According to the X-ray fluorescence analysis of the filter, Bnt-ADPA also retained Ca (II), Mn (II) and Sr (II) ions.
