A review of nano-carbon based molecularly imprinted polymer adsorbents and their adsorption mechanism

摘要: Abstract Nanocarbon materials have become a class of ideal supports for surface molecularly imprinted because their low density, high strength, environment-friendliness, controllable structure and modifiable surface. Thus, nanocarbon-based polymer adsorbents (C-SMIPs) achieved satisfactory performance the removal enrichment organic compound pollutants in liquids. This review summarizes C-SMIPs based on various nanocarbon treatment ecological environmental water during last five years. The structural characteristics adsorption features these C-SMIPshave been comprehensively systematically analyzed compared. It is found that limit capacity usually decided by carbon support while upper depends more layer. Specifically, porous nanospheres or graphene oxide large capacities. can also be inferred essence C-SMIP towards target molecules physical at solid-liquid interfaces, chemical-like literature caused an extremely strong interaction between active sites adsorbate multiple non-covalent bonds like ionic bonds, hydrogen electrostatic interactions, van der Waals forces, which settles long-standing controversy nature C-SMIPs. Moreover, analysis discussion provide some theoretical practical evidence optimization, imprinting method amelioration, parameter selection, may promote development applications
