摘要:Abstract We synthesized the poly(methyl methacrylate-co-2-aminoethyl methacrylate (PMaema) amphiphilic copolymer in a form of solid phase adsorbent. Then it was used for separation, preconcentration and determination of trace amount of As(III) ions from foods and waters with hydride generation atomic absorption spectrometry. The PMaema was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectrometer and nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer. The adsorption of As(III) to the PMaema was also supported using computational chemistry studies. The experimental parameters (pH, PMaema amount, adsorption time and ethanol volume) were optimized using a three-level Box–Behnken design with four experimental factors. We observed linear calibration curve for the PMaema amount in the 10–500 ng L −1 range (R 2 = 0.9956). Limit of detection, preconcentration factor and sorbent capacity of PMaema were equal to 3.3 ng L −1 , 100 and 75.8 mg g −1 , respectively. The average recoveries (spiked at 50 ng L −1 ) changes in the range of 91.5–98.6% with acceptable relative standard deviation less than 4.3%. After validation studies, the method was successfully applied for separation, preconcentration and determination of trace amount of As(III) from foods and waters.
