Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of electrochemical detection and sensing, and particularly relates to a molecular imprinting modified electrode for detecting trifluoroacetic acid in water, a preparation method and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) encompass thousands of synthetic fluorinated compounds. These substances are widely used, extremely persistent, and have the potential to bioaccumulate, making them ubiquitous in water systems worldwide. As long-chain PFASs (e.g., perfluorooctanoic acid) are phased out under regulatory pressure, ultra-short-chain PFASs, such as trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), now dominate environmental PFAS concentrations. Unlike hydrophobic long-chain PFASs, which primarily adsorb on sediments, the acidic and hydrophilic properties of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) predispose it to rapid leaching, migration, and accumulation in aquatic ecosystems. However, due to its high carbon-fluorine bond dissociation energy, TFA is difficult to degrade naturally. Studies have found increasing concentrations of TFA in various environmental media, and in some regions, TFA concentrations in drinking water are approaching or exceeding the total PFAS limit (0.5 μg / L) set out in the draft EU Drinking Water Directive.

[0003] Current studies have shown that trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) can adversely affect human health and the environment. Therefore, the development of portable on-site detection methods that can selectively distinguish TFA from other interfering compounds in complex water matrices is crucial for assessing exposure risks and guiding remediation strategies.

[0004] At present, the detection and analysis technology of trifluoroacetic acid mainly relies on liquid / gas chromatography or fluorine nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. However, these technologies are expensive and require professional laboratories and trained technicians to operate. Existing trifluoroacetic acid detection methods also include ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, spectrophotometry, and ion exchange liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Although the above methods are effective, they are often interfered with, time-consuming and costly. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a simpler, faster, more sensitive and selective detection method.

[0005] Molecularly imprinted electrodes are highly selective. By modifying the imprinted polymer, they can accurately measure target ions in trace environments. At the same time, they are low in cost and highly practical.

[0006] Emerging sensing strategies, such as colorimetry and fluorescence, show great potential for on-site detection of trifluoroacetic acid, but existing research has largely focused on sensing gaseous trifluoroacetic acid. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a rapid, portable, user-friendly, and low-cost method for the detection of trifluoroacetic acid in natural waters, capable of continuous monitoring. In this context, electrochemical sensing technology presents a promising alternative. Among various electrochemical sensing methods, pulsed electrochemical techniques, such as differential pulse voltammetry and square wave voltammetry, have been widely used in pollutant detection due to their excellent sensitivity and rapid analytical capabilities.

[0007] Due to the excellent stability of the carbon-fluorine bond in trifluoroacetic acid, it exhibits significant electrochemical inertness at conventional operating potentials, making it impossible to directly generate a detectable signal using traditional voltammetry (such as differential pulse voltammetry and square wave voltammetry). Therefore, it is imperative to develop new strategies that can effectively overcome this inertness and achieve highly sensitive detection. In addition, the composition of water bodies in the natural environment is complex, and achieving highly selective recognition of trifluoroacetic acid is another major challenge facing its detection. In order to simultaneously address the electrochemical inertness of trifluoroacetic acid and the selectivity problem in complex matrices, the present invention provides a molecularly imprinted modified electrode for detecting trifluoroacetic acid in water, a preparation method, and its application.

The F element peak in the spectrum can be used to determine whether the fluorination is successful.

[0024] 2. Electrochemical performance Figure 4 (a) The results show that the charge transfer resistance (R ct ) are 457.9Ω and 238.2Ω respectively, and the R ct is significantly lower, which is related to its unique band structure characteristics. x The combination with UiO-66-F4 makes R ct The performance of UiO-66-F4@Ti3C2T was significantly reduced to 148.8Ω, indicating that the x The conductivity is improved.

[0025] In order to clarify the charge transfer mechanism at the interface, the present invention also conducted Bader charge analysis, and the results are shown in Figure 4 (b). Figure 4 (b) The results obtained from Ti3C2T x The net electron transfer to UiO-66-F4 is 8.11e - , this charge redistribution establishes an interfacial electric field, thereby promoting charge transfer between components.

[0026] The electrode sensitivity was further quantified using Tafel slope analysis, and the results are shown in Figure 4 (c).

[0027] Depend on Figure 4 (c) The results show that UiO-66, UiO-66-F4, UiO-66-F4@Ti3C2T x and UiO-66-F4 / MIP@Ti3C2T x The Tafel slopes of UiO-66-F4@Ti3C2T are 973.76, 805.61, 125.91 and 203.12 mV / dec respectively. x The heterostructures exhibit the highest sensitivity, and this enhanced kinetic behavior is directly related to the interfacial electronic structure.

Analytical performance and linearity of the electrode for trifluoroacetic acid.

[0029] UiO-66-F4 / MIP@Ti3C2T x The molecularly imprinted modified electrode was placed in trifluoroacetic acid solution with different concentration gradients (0μM~13mM) and the current response change was detected after incubation. The test results are as follows: Figure 5 (a) shown.

[0030] Depend on Figure 5 (a) The results show that with the increase of trifluoroacetic acid concentration, the response current gradually decreases. This may be because more trifluoroacetic acid binds to the sites on the molecularly imprinted polymer, blocking the redox of potassium ferrocyanide / potassium ferrocyanide probe on the electrode surface. The results show that UiO-66-F4 / MIP@Ti3C2T x Molecularly imprinted modified electrodes -4 ~10 -8 There is linearity within the range.

[0031] The current response under different trifluoroacetic acid concentration gradients was plotted against the corresponding trifluoroacetic acid concentration to obtain a linear fitting curve. Figure 5 (b)

[0032] Figure 5(b) The fitting results show that the response current has a good linear relationship with the concentration of trifluoroacetic acid, R 2 =0.993. The good linear performance can be attributed to the following reasons: (1) The single-layer Ti3C2T x As a conductive layer, it greatly improves the electron mobility; (2) The fluorinated metal organic framework acts as an enrichment layer to effectively enrich trifluoroacetic acid, thereby improving the detection accuracy; (3) The molecularly imprinted polymer selectively binds to trifluoroacetic acid molecules, thereby improving the sensitivity of electrode detection.

[0033] 4.

The results are shown in Figure 6 .

[0034] Depend on Figure 6 The results show that the presence of other interfering substances does not lead to large fluctuations before and after the peak current. The good selectivity of the electrode proves that the molecularly imprinted composite material UiO-66-F4 / MIP@Ti3C2T synthesized in this invention x It has good selectivity for trifluoroacetic acid. 5. Stability testing Depend on Figure 7 The results show that the detection of trifluoroacetic acid by using three sets of parallel electrodes in four tests with three days intervals each time shows that the difference in the response current of the electrode is small under the long-term storage of 12 days, proving that UiO-66-F4 / MIP@Ti3C2T x The molecularly imprinted modified electrode has good stability.

[0035] 6. Detection and analysis of trifluoroacetic acid in actual water samples Tap water and Xiangjiang River water (diluted 1000 times) were selected for testing. The UiO-66-F4 / MIP@Ti3C2T prepared in Example 1 was x The molecularly imprinted electrode was used for the quantitative determination and spike recovery of trifluoroacetic acid in real water samples (tap water and Xiangjiang River water). The test results are shown in Table 1 below.
