Abstract :
In this search, an ultrasound-and magnetic-assisted dispersive micro-solid-phase extraction (US-M-A-DMSPE) was developed for selective separation of Pb ion by an innovative nanocomposite based on carbon quantum dots functionalized with magnetite/zeolitic imidazolate framework 71/polypyrrole. To fabricate the novel nanocomposite, first, the magnetized carbon quantum dot was functionalized by imidazolate zeolite-71, and then pyrrole was utilized as an oxidant agent in the chemical polymerization on the surface of magnetic carbon quantum dot functionalized with zeolitic imidazolate framework 71. Lead was analyzed by flam atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). The structure of nanosorbent was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray analyzer (EDX), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) and Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR). To maximum recoveries of Pb (II), the optimum experimental conditions and analytical parameters such as amount of sorbent, pH of samples, ultrasonic time, chelating agent concentration, ionic strength, volume of desorbing solvent and reusability were estimated. Under the optimal conditions, the preconcentration factor was achieved 60. The limits of detection and quantification were found to be 0.15 ng mL−1 and 0.5 ng mL−1, respectively. The relative standard deviations (RSD%) of the developed US-M-A-DMSPE process is below was 2.9 %. The present process was successfully applied to the determination of Pb2+ ion at trace levels in water and food samples by ultrasound-and magnetic-assisted dispersive micro-solid-phase extraction tandem flame atomic adsorption spectroscopy (US-M-A-DMSPE-FAAS) and its validation was investigated by recovery experiments and analyzing certified reference material.
