Synthesis of core–shell magnetic ion-imprinted polymer nanospheres for selective solid-phase extraction of Pb2+ from biological,food, and wastewater samples

Magnetic ion-imprinted polymer nanospheres, which have core–shell structures, have been synthesized as an adsorbent for extraction of Pb²⁺ from real samples prior to its flame atomic absorption spectrometric determination. The prepared adsorbent has been characterized using XRD, VSM, TEM, and FTIR measurements. The optimization results revealed that the adsorbent exhibited high selectivity toward Pb²⁺ over other cations such as Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺. In addition, the removal efficiency of synthesized adsorbent was considerable (q_m?=?171.42?mg g^?1), its calibration curve was linear (0.5?850.0?ng mL^?1), and detection limit was 0.01?ng mL^?1. These results suggested that the prepared nanoadsorbent is an ideal candidate for solid-phase extraction of Pb²⁺ ions.     

Investigations for Modification of Polyacrylamide-Bentonite by Phytic Acid and its Usability in Fe3+, Zn2+ and UO2 2+ Adsorption

Composite of polyacrylamide-bentonite (PAA-B) was prepared by direct polymerisation of PAA in a suspension of bentonite (B). Adsorption and thermodynamic features of phytic acid (Phy) adsorption onto B, PAA and PAA-B, and those of Fe³⁺, Zn²⁺, UO₂ ²⁺ adsorption onto PAA-B and its modification by Phy (PAA-B-Phy) have been investigated. The reusability, storagability, ion selectivity and recoverability of sorbed ions with 1 M HCl have also been considered.The chemical and physical structure of adsorbents has been characterised by means of FT-IR and XRD. All adsorption isotherms for Phy and the ions were L-type of the Giles classification except, the one which is S type for adsorption of Phy onto PAA. The maximum adsorption capacities for the ions adsorbed were in order of UO₂ ²⁺ > Fe³⁺ > Zn²⁺ for PAA-B and Zn²⁺ > Fe³⁺ > UO₂ ²⁺ for PAA-B-Phy. Langmuir equilibrium constants for the adsorption of ions onto PAA-B-Phy were significantly higher than those found for PAA-B; the magnitude of increase for UO₂ ²⁺ was about 100. The thermodynamic parameters indicated that adsorption reactions are spontaneous in terms of adsorption free enthalpy.The chemical structure of PAA-B-Phy was not changed at the end of the studies of reusability and storagability. The composite was selective for UO₂ ²⁺ of the ions of interest.The composite of PAA-B and its modification by Phy have been used for the first time in this investigation. It is proposed that the composites can be practically used in the investigations and applications of adsorption.     

Preparation of core–shell structure Fe3O4@SiO2 superparamagnetic microspheres immoblized with iminodiacetic acid as immobilized metal ion affinity adsorbents for His‐tag protein purification

The core–shell structure Fe₃O₄/SiO₂ magnetic microspheres were prepared by a sol–gel method, and immobiled with iminodiacetic acid (IDA) as metal ion affinity ligands for protein adsorption. The size, morphology, magnetic properties and surface modification of magnetic silica nanospheres were characterized by various modern analytical instruments. It was shown that the magnetic silica nanospheres exhibited superparamagnetism with saturation magnetization values of up to 58.1 emu/g. Three divalent metal ions, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺ and Zn²⁺, were chelated on the Fe₃O₄@SiO₂–IDA magnetic microspheres to adsorb lysozyme. The results indicated that Ni²⁺‐chelating magnetic microspheres had the maximum adsorption capacity for lysozyme of 51.0 mg/g, adsorption equilibrium could be achieved within 60 min and the adsorbed protein could be easily eluted. Furthermore, the synthesized Fe₃O₄@SiO₂–IDA–Ni²⁺ magnetic microspheres were successfully applied for selective enrichment lysozyme from egg white and His‐tag recombinant Homer 1a from the inclusion extraction expressed in Escherichia coli. The result indicated that the magnetic microspheres showed unique characteristics of high selective separation behavior of protein mixture, low nonspecific adsorption, and easy handling. This demonstrates that the magnetic silica microspheres can be used efficiently in protein separation or purification and show great potential in the pretreatment of the biological sample.

Application of ion-imprinted polymer synthesized by precipitation polymerization as an efficient and selective sorbent for separation and pre-concentration of chromium ions from some real samples

In this study, a new Cr(III)-imprinted polymer (Cr(III)-IIP) is prepared from CrCl₃·6H₂O, methacrylic acid functional monomer, ethyleneglycoldimethacrylate cross-linking agent, 2,2?-azobisisobutyronitrile radical initiator and 2,2-(azanediylbis (ethane-2,1-diyl))bis(isoindoline-1,3-dione) ligand. To obtain the maximum adsorption capacity, the optimum condition was studied through pH, type and concentration of eluent, IIP weight, sample volume as well as the adsorption and desorption times. The Cr(III) ion content was determined via flame atomic absorption spectrometer. In optimum conditions, the adsorption capacity of the IIP for Cr(III) was obtained to be 74.65 mg g^?1, using 50 mg of IIP and the initial pH solution of 3.0. Both the adsorption and desorption times for quantitative analyses of Cr(III) ions were 15 and 5 min; respectively. After elution of the adsorbed ions by 3 mL of 4 mol L^?1 HNO₃ aqueous solution, the established IIP-based SPE procedure provides a reasonable pre-concentration factor of 100. The IIP-based pre-concentration method provides a low detection limit of 1.7 µg L^?1 with good repeatability (RSD?=?3.22%). Reusability studies confirmed that synthesis IIP is reusable and recoverable up to six cycles. According to the selectivity experiments, it was concluded that the prepared sorbent possesses more affinity toward Cr(III) ions than other ions such as Al³⁺, Pb²⁺, Cu²⁺, Mn²⁺, Fe²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Ni²⁺ ions. To evaluate the potential applicability of the proposed separation method, the pre-concentration and determination of trace amounts of Cr(III) were performed successfully in food samples with complex matrices, a bestial sample (i.e. cow liver) and an herbal product (i.e., broccoli) as real samples.     

Applications of Inorganic Ion Exchangers: II—Adsorption of Some Heavy Metal Ions from Their Aqueous Waste Solution Using Synthetic Iron(III) Titanate

Adsorption of Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions from aqueous waste solutions on iron(III) titanate as inorganic ion exchange material was investigated to determine the effect of contact time, pH of solution and the reaction temperatures. Batch kinetic studies were carried out and showed that the time of equilibrium for both Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions was attained within three hours, and the order of kinetic reaction is the first order reaction. Batch distribution coefficients of Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions on iron(III) titanate as a function of pH have been studied at 25, 40 and 60 ± 1°C. From the obtained results we found that the K _d values decreased with increasing reaction temperatures. Enthalpy change (H) values for Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions were found to be –8.19 and –22.49 kJ/mol, respectively. The data of adsorption of Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions at various concentrations were fitted with the Freundlich isotherm. Finally, separation of the above mentioned cations on iron(III) titanate in a column was performed.     

CeO<Subscript>2</Subscript> nanoparticle-modified electrode as a novel electrochemical interface in the quantification of Zn<Superscript>2+ </Superscript>ions at trace level: application to real sample analysis

A simple strategy has been proposed to quantify Zn²⁺ ions using CeO₂ nanoparticle-modified glassy carbon electrode. The CeO₂ nanoparticles were prepared by sucrose-nitrate decomposition method, and it was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), FT-IR, TEM, and surface area analyzer. The synthesized CeO₂ nanoparticles were used as modifier molecules as a thin film on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) in the trace level quantification of Zn²⁺ by using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) techniques. The fabricated sensor exhibited a good analytical response towards Zn²⁺ ions. The modified electrode showed a wide linearity in the concentration range 20–380 μg L^?1 with a limit of detection 0.36 μg L^?1. The proposed electrochemical sensor was successfully applied to trace level Zn²⁺ quantification from real sample matrices.     

Study on complexation adsorption behavior of dibenzo-18-crown-6 immobilized on CPVA microspheres for metal ions

Dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DBC) was immobilized on crosslinked polyvinyl alcohol (CPVA) microspheres, resulting in polymer-supported crown ether DBC–CPVA. The complexation adsorption behaviors of DBC–CPVA microspheres towards diverse metal ions were investigated. The experimental results show that among alkali metal ions, the complexation adsorption ability of DBC–CPVA for K⁺ ion is the strongest, and crown ether-metal complex in 1:1 ratio is formed, exhibiting a high adsorption capacity. The adsorption capacities of alkali metal ions on DBC–CPVA are in the order: K⁺ ? Na⁺ > LI⁺ > Rb⁺ > Cs⁺. Among several divalent metal ions, DBC–CPVA exhibits stronger adsorption ability towards Zn²⁺ and Co²⁺ ions, and a “sandwich”-type complex is formed probably in a molar ratio of 2:1 between the immobilized DBC and Zn²⁺ ion as well as between the immobilized DBC and Co²⁺ ion. The adsorption capacities of the several divalent metal ions on DBC–CPVA are in the order: Zn²⁺ > Co²⁺ ? Cd²⁺ > Cu²⁺ > Ni²⁺ > Pb²⁺. The complexation adsorption is exothermic physical physisorption process, and raising temperature leads to the decrease of the adsorption capacity. At the same time, the entropy during the complexation adsorption decreases, so the adsorption process is driven by the decrease of enthalpy.

The use of iron oxide/amino-functionalized silica core–shell magnetic nanoparticles for preconcentration of Pb²⁺ followed by its consecutive atomic absorption spectrometry determination is described. Effects of various operating variables, namely, solution pH, initial Pb²⁺ concentration, contact time, adsorbent dosage, sample volume, concentration and volume of desorbing solution, and co-existing ions on solid-phase extraction (SPE) of Pb²⁺ were studied by batch equilibrium technique.

Subsequently, simultaneous ultrasound‐assisted adsorption of Cu²⁺ and Cr³⁺ ions onto TiO₂‐NPs‐AC after complexation via eriochrome cyanine R (ECR) has been investigated with UV–Vis and FAA spectrophotometer. Spectra overlapping of the ECR‐Cu and ECR‐Cr complex was resolve by derivative spectrophotometric technique. The effects of various parameters such as initial Cu²⁺ (A) and Cr³⁺ (B) ions concentrations, TiO₂‐NPs‐AC mass (C), sonication time (D) and pH (E) on the removal percentage were investigated and optimized by central composite design (CCD). The optimize conditions were set as: 4.21 min, 0.019 mg, 20.02 and 13.22 mg L^?1 and 6.63 for sonication time, TiO₂–NP–AC mass, initial Cr³⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions concentration and pH, respectively. The experimental equilibrium data fitting to Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin–Radushkevich models show that the Langmuir model is a good and suitable model for evaluation and the actual behavior of adsorption process and maximum adsorption capacity of 105.26 and 93.46 mg g^?1 were obtained for Cu²⁺ and Cr³⁺ ions, respectively. Kinetic evaluation of experimental data showed that the adsorption processes followed well pseudo second order and intraparticle diffusion models.     

Novel Fe3O4/hydroxyapatite/β‐cyclodextrin nanocomposite adsorbent: Synthesis and application in heavy metal removal from aqueous solution

The increased global concern on environmental protection has made researchers focus their attention on new and more efficient methods of pollutant removal. In this research, novel nanocomposite adsorbents,i.e., magnetic hydroxyapatite (Fe₃O₄@HA) and magnetic hydroxyapatite β‐cyclodextrin (Fe₃O₄@HA‐CD) were synthesized and used for heavy metal removal. The adsorbents were characterized by FTIR, XRD, TGA, VSM, and SEM. In order to investigate the effect of β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD) removal efficiency, adsorption results of nine metal ions were compared for both adsorbents. β‐CD showed the most increasing effect for Cd²⁺ and Cu²⁺ removal, so these two ions were selected for further studies. The effect of diverse parameters including pH, contact time, initial metal ion concentration and adsorbent dosage on the adsorption process was discussed. The optimum pH was 6 and adsorption equilibrium was achieved after 1 hr. Adsorption kinetic data were well fitted by pseudo‐second‐order model proposing that metal ions were adsorbed via chemical reaction. Adsorption isotherm was best described by the Langmuir model, and maximum adsorption capacity for Cd²⁺ and Cu²⁺ was 100.00 and 66.66 (mg/g), respectively. Desorption experiment was also done, and the most efficient eluent used for desorption of metal ions was EDTA (0.001 M) with 91% and 88% of Cd²⁺ and Cu²⁺ release, respectively. Recyclability studies also showed a 19% decrease in the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent after five cycles of regeneration. Therefore, the synthesized adsorbents were recognized as potential candidates for heavy metal adsorption applications.     

Electrochemical polymerization of polyaniline doped with Zn2+ as the electrode material for electrochemical supercapacitors

Polyaniline doped with Zn²⁺ (PANI/Zn²⁺) films was synthesized by cyclic voltammetric method on stainless steel mesh substrates in 0.2 mol L^?1 aniline and 0.5 mol L^?1 sulfuric acid electrolyte with various concentrations of zinc sulfate (ZnSO₄·7H₂O). The structure and morphology of PANI and PANI/Zn²⁺ films were characterized by Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy techniques, respectively. The electrochemical properties of PANI and PANI/Zn²⁺ films were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge–discharge test, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in 0.5 mol L^?1 H₂SO₄ electrolyte in a three-electrode system. The results show that the surface morphology of PANI/Zn²⁺ is more rough than that of pure PANI. The specific capacitance of the PANI/Zn²⁺ film displays a larger specific capacitance of 738 F g^?1, lower resistance, and better stability as compared with the pure PANI film. Thus, good capacitive performance demonstrates its potential superiority for supercapacitors.     

Removal of Th4+ ions from aqueous solutions by graphene oxide

The removal of Th⁴⁺ ions from aqueous solutions was investigated using single-layer graphene oxide (GO) as a sorbent which was prepared by the modified Hummers’ method through batch adsorption experiments at room temperature. Structural characterizations of the sorbent were also investigated. The influences of the pH value of solution, contact time, sorbent dose, ionic strength, the initial metal ion concentration and temperature on the adsorption of Th⁴⁺ were also investigated. These results indicated that the adsorption of Th⁴⁺ was dependent on the pH and independent on the ionic strength. The sorbent provided significant Th⁴⁺ removal (>98.7 %) at pH 3.0 and the adsorption equilibrium was achieved after only 10 min. The Langmuir adsorption isotherm fit the absorption profile very closely, and indicated that a maximum adsorption capacity of 1.77 mmol g^?1 of GO (411 mg g^?1) after 2 h. The thermodynamic parameters showed that this adsorption process was endothermic and spontaneous. Moreover, the desorption level of Th⁴⁺ from GO, by using 0.1 mol L^?1 H₂SO₄ as a stripping agent, was 84.2 ± 1.2 %, and that of 0.5 mol L^?1 HNO₃ as a stripping agent, was 79.8 ± 3.0 %.     

Chitin-based magnetic composite for the removal of contaminating substances from aqueous media

A method of obtaining multipurpose magnetic chitin, which combines the magnetic properties of magnetite and the adsorption properties of polysaccharide, was proposed. The possibility of using chitin-(CT) and chitosan (CS)-containing magnetic composites for the adsorption of inorganic ions Co^II and Cr^VI and organic substances (2- and 4-nitrophenols) from aqueous media was analyzed. It was shown that the adsorption capacity of magnetic chitin with respect to Co^II and Cr^VI ions reached 41 mg g^?1 and 15 mg g^?1, respectively. The maximum adsorption capacity for 4-nitrophenol (19 mg g^?1 per CT-containing magnetic composite or 56 mg g^?1 per chitin component) was about three times higher than for 2-nitrophenol. The obtained adsorbent Fe₃O₄/CT is environmentally friendly and reusable.
