Abstract

Recently, thermal-sensitive polymers absorbed much more concerns, and the goal of present work was to modify magnetic nanoparticles with N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) and methyl 3,3-dimethylacrylate (DMMA) for obtaining thermal and magnetic dual-sensitive nanoparticles based on silica coated nanoscale zero valent iron and thermal-sensitive polymers (Fe@p(NIPAM-co-DMMA)). Fe@p(NIPAM-co-DMMA) nanoparticles were fabricated and possessed excellent adsorption ability for Sudan pollutants in aqueous samples. A rapid extraction and separation approach utilizing synthesized dual-sensitive nanomaterials was designed and developed before analysis by liquid chromatography (HPLC). Upon the enrichment factors as their optimal values, the established method gained wonderful linearity over the range of 0.05-500 μg L-1. The precisions of proposed method were all lower than 3.87%. The validating experiments ensured that this developed method provided with satisfied recoveries in the range of 97.4-102.6% from spiked real water samples, which affirmed that this method was a reliable monitoring tool for Sudan pollutants in water and food samples, etc.
