Preparation of microspheric Fe(III)-ion imprinted polymer for selective solid phase extraction
2018
In this research work, an Fe(III)-IIP was prepared using methacrylic acid as monomer, divinylbenzene as cross-linker, azobisisobutyronitrile as initiator. The ion imprinted polymer was functionalized with Fe(III)8-hydroxy quinolone complex under thermal conditions by copolymerization with the monomer and the cross-linker. The prepared Fe(III)-ion imprinted polymer (IIP) and non-ion imprinted polymer (Non-IIP) were characterized with fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopic analysis and thermal gravimetric analysis. The polymer showed a good stability to thermal analysis up to a temperature of 500 °C. The size of the polymer obtained was 1 µm, large enough to be filtered easily. At pH 2.5 more affinity was observed with ion imprinted polymer in comparison to non-ion imprinted polymer. For the kinetic study, the most linear and rhythmical relation were seen in pseudo second order. The maximum sorption capacity of Fe(III) ions on Fe(III)-IIP and non-IIP was 170 and 30.0 µmolg−1, respectively. The relative selectivity factor (αr) values of Fe(III)/Fe(II), Fe(III)/Al(III) and Fe(III)/Cr(III) were 151.0, 84.6 and 91.9, respectively. The preconcentration factor was found to be 240. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of trace Fe in the drinking water.
