A terpolymer resin derived from Resorcinol, Formaldehyde and Salicylic acid was synthesized through condensation reaction. Transition metal ions namely Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) were incorporated into the resin forming polymer-metal complexes. Both the resin and the complexes were characterized by FTIR, UV–Vis., XRD, 1H NMR, TGA and SEM/EDX. Elemental analysis was carried out […]
