Abstract | This current study examined the fate of antimony (Sb) in the soil environment and its association with soil humic acid (HA). It is anticipated that a significant proportion of Sb is retained in soil organic layer; therefore, the oxidation state of Sb is controlled by the soil HA to some extent which influences Sb solubility and ecotoxicity. Parent HA material as well as prepared HA–Sb (III) composites was investigated by determining elemental composition and by performing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy study in order to study Sb coordination to natural macro organic ligand. The Sb (III) binding to soil derived HA mainly contributed to its open chains through carboxyl and hydroxyl moieties as revealed by the 1H and solid state 13C NMR spectroscopy. The protons in carboxylic and hydroxylic groups (those proton signals are characteristic of HAs with different origins) disappeared in the HA–Sb composite; and relative changes were observed in aliphatic proton distribution between the HA samples with and without Sb. The overall patterns of 13C NMR spectra for the investigated samples were analogous to each other; moreover, it was estimated that the cyclic structure of the HA nucleus remained unchanged during Sb (III) association. Based on the absorption edge energy and coordination numbers, Sb oxidation state in a native soil was interpreted as pentavalent, meanwhile the HA–Sb composite contained both Sb (III) and Sb (V). It was shown that HA catalyzes Sb (III) oxidation to Sb (V) but the process was relatively slow. However, XAFS spectra sensitivity was limited when studying the HA–Sb composite that was prepared from the isolated soil HA fraction, so only data on the first shell Sb–O coordination were interpreted. |
