Fibrous chelate adsorbents have been synthesized by radiation-induced graft polymerization onto polyethylene nonwoven fabric. Graft polymerization was induced by electron beam irradiation to the trunk polymer. Then, irradiated trunk polymer was contacted with reactive monomer having function of chelate agent or its precursor. The precursor was chemically converted to chelate agent. The resulting fibrous chelate adsorbent gave the high space velocity more than 500 h in removal of lead from its solution. Such adsorbent was applied to the removal of cadmium from scallop processing waste and the removal of lead from the contaminated water which was produced by washing the inside of incinerator.

Radiation induced graft-polymerization is sophisticated technique which is capable of introducing aiming functions into conventional polymers. Especially, pre-irradiation method is available for industrialization owing to discrete processes of irradiation and grafting. The chelate adsorbents having high selectivity against metals were synthesized by the graft-polymerization. The recovery of uranium from seawater and the removal of toxic metals from wastewater were described as applicable examples of the graft adsorbents.
