Polyaspartate is an excellent Pb 2+ ‐binding agent in comparison with some polyaspartamide derivatives with different side chains, in that it possesses a higher Pb 2+ uptake and a lower Pb 2+ equilibrium concentration. Equilibrium sorption data for Pb 2+ on polyaspartate can be well fitted with the Freundlich and Langmuir models. Experimental results show that a crosslinked polyaspartate hydrogel is superior to poly(acrylic acid)‐based resins and polystyrene‐based chelating resins. IR spectra and X‐ray photoelectron spectra reveal that the polyaspartate hydrogel binds Pb 2+ by both an ion‐exchange mechanism and a chelating mechanism. The polyaspartate hydrogel is also an effective agent for the removal of Pb 2+ from glycyrrhizin. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 97: 2215–2220, 2005
