Synthesis of an Organotin Specific Molecularly Imprinted Polymer for Organotin Passive Sampling in Seawater
Environmental contaminations can sometimes be difficult to measure, particularly in complex matrices such as seawater. This is the case of organotin compounds (OSn) such as the monobutyltin (MBT), dibutyltin (DBT), and tributyltin (TBT), whose range of polarity is wide. These compounds, mostly coming from antifouling paints used on ship shell, can be found in water and sediments where they are stable and can persist for years. Passive sampling is gaining in interest to offer solutions to monitor these kinds of compounds even in low concentrations. However, due to the diversity of pollutants present in the environment nowadays, it is important to propose solutions that allow a specific sampling. This work aims to highlight the usability of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) in passive sampling for the monitoring of OSn. MIPs were synthetized using three synthesis ways (bulk, suspension, and mini-emulsion processes) and kinetics were realized in order to estimate the retention of OSn by the solid MIP phase. Results highlighted a good retention of OSn with mean retention kinetic constants near 10−5, 10−6 and 10−7 L·ng·s−1 for DBT, TBT and MBT respectively. The synthesis mode showed no impact on retention kinetics, therefore, bulk synthesis is recommended because of its simplicity. If the elimination of OSn from MIPs is to be optimized, the retention of OSn on MIPs has been demonstrated, and is very promising for their use in specific passive samplers.
