Description

A method for preparing surface molecularly imprinted polymers with hierarchical porous metal-organic frameworks and its application. Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of preparation of functional polymers and separation and enrichment of bisphenol A, specifically relating to a method for preparing a multi-level porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are highly cross-linked complexes formed by template molecules and functional monomers. After template removal, the specific recognition sites in MIPs, such as spatial structure, size, and functional groups, closely match the template molecules. This "memory" ability allows for the selective adsorption and recognition of template molecules that coexist with other compounds. Compared to conventional MIPs, surface-imprinted polymers have recognition sites located on the material surface in direct contact with the target molecules, resulting in higher adsorption rates and faster equilibrium adsorption times. The target molecules can also be more easily eluted after adsorption, thus enabling material regeneration. This regenerability gives surface-imprinted polymers a longer lifespan and higher reusability.

[0003] Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) possess advantages such as porous structure, high specific surface area, tunability and versatility, controlled release and regeneration capabilities, as well as chemical and thermal stability. These advantages make MOFs an ideal support material for constructing efficient, selective, and controllable surface-imprinted polymers. However, traditional MOFs have pore sizes smaller than 2 nm, belonging to microporous structures, which reduces the reaction rate and adsorption capacity during the adsorption process, limiting the application range of MOFs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem solved by this invention is to provide a method for preparing a multi-level porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer. The multi-level porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer prepared by this method has a strong ability to selectively adsorb the target bisphenol A in aqueous solution and the adsorption capacity is high, which can be used for the separation and enrichment of bisphenol A in actual environmental samples.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a method for preparing a multi-level porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer, characterized in that the specific process is as follows: the functional monomer methacrylic acid and the template molecule bisphenol A are dispersed in ethanol containing a carrier multi-level porous metal-organic framework, prepolymerized at 20~40℃ for 2~8h, then the crosslinking agent ethylene glycol dimethacrylate and the initiator azobisisobutyronitrile are added, and after ultrasonication and nitrogen protection, thermal polymerization is carried out at 50~70℃ for 20~30h, and after elution and drying, the multi-level porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer is obtained, wherein the multi-level porous metal-organic framework is prepared by using one or more of sodium dodecyl sulfonate, sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, sodium dodecyl sulfate or dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide as a soft template.

[0006] Further specified, the molar ratio of the template molecule, functional monomer and crosslinking agent is 0.3~1.5:2~4:10~20.

[0007] Further specifying, the specific preparation process of the hierarchical porous metal-organic framework is as follows: a soft template and copper nitrate trihydrate are mixed and added to trimesic acid, and then reacted at 110~130℃ for 10~14h to obtain the hierarchical porous metal-organic framework, wherein the soft template is one or more of sodium dodecyl sulfonate, sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, sodium dodecyl sulfate or dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide.

[0008] Further specified, the molar ratio of the soft template and copper nitrate trihydrate is 0.05~0.5:1.

[0009] Further specifying, the elution process uses Soxhlet extraction, specifically, Soxhlet extraction with a methanol and acetic acid mixture at a volume ratio of 9:1 for 48 hours.

[0010] The multi-level porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer of the present invention is used for the separation and enrichment of bisphenol A in actual environmental samples. The specific process is as follows: the multi-level porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer is placed in an actual environmental sample containing bisphenol A to achieve the adsorption of bisphenol A in the environmental water sample, and then acetonitrile is used as the elution solvent to achieve the enrichment of bisphenol A and the regeneration and recycling of the multi-level porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer.

[0011] Further, a hierarchical porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer was packed into a polypropylene solid-phase extraction column equipped with a sieve plate for the pretreatment of bisphenol A in actual environmental water samples. The spiked experiment results showed that the recovery rate of bisphenol A reached more than 90%, indicating that the hierarchical porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer can be used for the separation and enrichment of bisphenol A. After more than 10 cycles of use, the adsorption performance of the solid-phase extraction column did not decrease significantly, indicating that the hierarchical porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer can be regenerated and recycled.

[0012] The hierarchical porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer of the present invention is used to selectively remove bisphenol A from actual environmental samples. This hierarchical porous metal-organic framework surface molecularly imprinted polymer can selectively adsorb bisphenol A in an aqueous solution containing bisphenol A, bisphenol B, 2,4-dinitrophenol, chloramphenicol and sulfadiazine.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This invention provides a multi-level porous organic framework metal material prepared with various surfactants as a carrier for preparing bisphenol A surface-imprinted polymers. The surface-imprinted polymers have properties such as uniform particle size, large adsorption capacity, and strong affinity in water.

[0015] 2. The present invention uses ethanol as the preparation solvent, which on the one hand reduces the secondary damage to the environment caused by non-polar solvents such as acetonitrile and methanol, and on the other hand improves the adsorption capacity of the imprinted polymer.
