The adsorption kinetics of platinum(IV) chloride complex ions on the activated carbon Norit GF40 was investigated. Experiments were carried out at different initial concentrations of Pt(IV) chloride complex ions, temperature, rate of mixing and pH. It was found that the value of activation energy of the studied process is equal to 19.7 kJ/mol. From the ICP MS analysis it was confirmed that platinum ions (Pt(IV) and Pt(II)) are removed from the solution due to the adsorption and are further reduced to the metallic state
Platinum(II) chloride is used as a catalyst for a variety of C-C bond, C-O bond and C-N bond formation reactions. It acts as a precursor to prepare other platinum compounds such as cisplatin and dichloro(cycloocta-1,5-diene)platinum(II). It is a well known chemotherapy drug.
