Abstract

ABSTRACTThe growing demand for even more sensitive analytical techniques resulted in the development of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) as adsorbents in solid-phase extraction. In this work, the preparation of polymer by combining synthesis of noncovalent MIPs and hard template technique is presented. Modified structured silica was used during polymerization of methacrylic acid and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate. After dissolution of silica, material was characterized and sorption studies were performed. Results confirmed that use of silica allows to design the polymer porous structure, obtained cavities are complementary to the template and approximately fourfold increase of sorption capacity comparing to non-imprinted polymer was achieved.
