Abstract
Hydrophobic cryogels with monolithic supermacropores based on poly-trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (pTrim) containing 1-(2-Hydroxyl-5-nonyphenyl)ethanone oxime (LIX84-I) were successfully prepared by a cryo-polymerization technique using organic solvents with freezing points between room temperature and around 0 °C as solvents. The prepared cryogels were characterized in terms of macroscopic shape and porous structure. The cryogels had a monolithic supermacroporous structure and high contents of LIX84-I depending on the added amount of the extractant to the monomer solution. The amount of LIX84-I impregnated in the cryogel had a linear relationship with the added amount of LIX84-I in the monomer solution for cryo-polymerization. Cu(II) in the aqueous solution was immediately adsorbed into the cryogel containing LIX84-I.
