Abstract: The relationship between chelating and reduction in the adsorption process of Au3+ ion onto chelating fiber containing amidoxime group was discussed.It is shown that, during the adsorption process for Au3+, the chelating fiber chelates with Au3+ ion at first, then partially reduces the adsorbed Au3+ ion into gold; the amidoxime group is gradually oxidized into amide group and carboxyl group.After the fiber with adsorbed Au3+ ion is burnt out at high temperature, spongy metallic gold is obtained.

Key words: Amidoxime group, Au3+ ion, Chelation, Oxidation-reduction, Spongy gold
