Abstract :Herein, we have reported the Hg(II) coordination polymer ,(Hg-CP), formulated {[Hg(L)](Cl2)](CH3CN)2}n, behaved as adsorbent against Rhodamine B dye stuff. UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy was used to conduct dye adsorption investigations on coordination polymers. Adsorption experiments were carried out in acidic (pH=3) and neutral (pH=6) media and the results showed that the compound removed the cationic Rhodamine B from water. In acidic media, the adsorption capacity of the Hg-CP was more than neutral media. Also, Hg-CP could selectively adsorb Rhodamine B dye from the Rhodamine B/Methyl orange dye mixture. The colour of the Hg-CP was white before adsorption, whereas it changed after adsorption as Rhodamine B adhered to the surface of Hg-CP.Keywords : Coordination polymers, cyclotriphosphazene, benzimidazole, dye adsorption, Rhodamine B
