Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to a method for preparing a colorimetric detection card for volatile phenolic compounds and its application, belonging to the field of rapid detection technology for volatile gases. Background Technology

[0002] Volatile phenolic compounds generally refer to phenolic compounds with boiling points below 230°C, which can evaporate with water vapor. Volatile phenolic compounds are toxic to humans; acute poisoning symptoms include vomiting, diarrhea, and dizziness, while long-term exposure may lead to headaches, rashes, itching, anemia, and neurological symptoms. Due to their wide range of industrial applications and potential environmental risks, volatile phenolic compounds require strict management and control during production, use, and emission; therefore, monitoring of these compounds is necessary.

[0003] Existing methods for detecting volatile phenolic compounds mainly include gas chromatography and spectrophotometry. Gas chromatography offers high sensitivity and accuracy, but requires specialized instruments and is relatively cumbersome to operate. Spectrophotometry uses chemical colorimetric reagents to react with phenols under specific conditions to generate color products, primarily targeting volatile phenolic compounds in aqueous media. It cannot directly and effectively respond to volatile phenolic gaseous compounds, nor can the corresponding colorimetric reagents be prepared into portable colorimetric detection cards. Both of these methods have limitations in practical applications; therefore, there is a need to develop a simple, sensitive, and easily stored colorimetric detection card for the rapid detection of volatile phenolic gaseous compounds in the environment. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a colorimetric card for rapid detection of volatile phenolic compound gases based on the colorimetric principle. This colorimetric card has good stability, high sensitivity, and can directly react with phenolic compound gases, making it applicable to a wide range of scenarios.

[0005] According to one aspect of this application, a method for preparing a colorimetric detection card for volatile phenolic compounds is provided, the method comprising at least the following steps:

[0006] Step I: Mix ZrCl4, 2-aminoterephthalic acid, ethanol, and formic acid, and react them to obtain MOFs material UiO-66-NH2;

[0007] Step II: Mix the MOFs material UiO-66-NH2 obtained in Step I, ethanol, and 2,6-dichloroquinone-4-chloroimine, and stir to obtain the MOFs material UiO-66-NH2 encapsulating 2,6-dichloroquinone-4-chloroimine.

[0008] Step III: The MOF material UiO-66-NH2 encapsulated with 2,6-dichloroquinone-4-chloroimine obtained in Step II was mixed with ethanol and coated onto a substrate to obtain a colorimetric detection card for volatile phenolic compounds.

[0009] Optionally, in step I, the molar ratio of ZrCl4 to 2-aminoterephthalic acid is 2:1;

[0010] The molar concentration of ZrCl4 in ethanol is 0.075–0.4 mol / L;

[0011] The volume ratio of ethanol to formic acid is 0.3:1 to 1.4:1.

[0012] Optionally, in step I, the reaction conditions are as follows:

[0013] The reaction time is 12–24 hours;

[0014] The reaction temperature is 120–150°C.

[0015] Optionally, in step II, the concentration of the MOF material UiO-66-NH2 in ethanol is 50-100 mg / mL;

[0016] The concentration of the 2,6-dichloroquinone-4-chloroimine indicator is 10–20 g / L.

[0017] Optionally, the stirring speed is 300 to 400 r / min.

[0018] Optionally, in step III, the concentration of the MOF material UiO-66-NH2 encapsulating 2,6-dichloroquinone-4-chloroimine in ethanol is 10–20 g / L.

[0019] Optionally, in step III, the substrate is selected from at least one of polyvinylidene fluoride membrane and PE membrane.

[0020] According to another aspect of this application, an application of a colorimetric detection card for volatile phenolic compounds is provided, wherein the colorimetric detection card is contacted and reacted with volatile phenolic compounds;

[0021] Optionally, the volatile phenolic compound is selected from at least one of phenol, catechol, resorcinol, hydroquinone, and phloroglucinol.

[0022] Optionally, the contact reaction time is 10 to 30 minutes;

[0023] The temperature of the contact reaction is 25–35°C.

[0024] The beneficial effects that this application can produce include:

[0025] 1) The constructed colorimetric detection card for volatile phenolic compounds uses a metal-organic framework material to encapsulate the indicator, which improves the stability of the indicator. Therefore, the detection card has high stability and a long shelf life.

[0026] 2) The colorimetric detection card for volatile phenolic compounds can directly measure phenolic compound gases. It only requires 10 minutes of contact reaction to obtain obvious color change results. It has high detection sensitivity and is easy to operate. Attached Figure Description
