Synthesis and Characterization of Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) Using Humic Acid

MIPs was synthesized through microwave assisted organic synthesis (MAOS) method by using methyl methacrylate (MMA) as functional monomer, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) cross-linker, benzoyl peroxide (BPO) initiator, N,N-dimethyl formamide (DMF) porogen solvent, and (HA) template. The successfully according to the characterization Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM), dispersive spectrometer (EDS), UV spectrophotometer. FTIR shows other groups peaks in spectra of NIPs after leaching were appeared at wavelength 2955 cm-1 corresponded stretching vibration C-H 1459 1160.06 bands CH3 O-CH3. EDS have elemental compositions C, O, Si with a mass 78.34, 21.43, 0.23%. spectrum absorbance values 0.36 nm 0.44 nm.
