Abstract
The surface functionality leading to a high reversibility adsorption of melamine was determined. Four different silane coupling agents, namely, 3‐(tri‐methoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate (TMSPMA), n‐propyl tri‐methoxy‐silane (PTMS), 3‐(tri‐ethoxysilyl) propionitrile (TESPN), and tri‐methoxy‐(octadecyl) silane (OTMS) were taken for making chemical functionality methacrylate, short methyl, nitrile, and extended methyl group respectively. The adsorption behavior of melamine over the substrates with four functionalities was determined using quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). The adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherms of the adsorption studies were analyzed. The initial adsorption rate depends on the hydrophobicity and roughness of the surfaces. However, the subsequent adsorption rate depends on the specific interaction. The data of equilibrium adsorbed mass at various equilibrium concentrations were fitted with the modified Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. The estimated model parameters were analyzed and compared with the reported parameters of the relevant systems. There is good agreement between our results and the reported results. In addition, very high adsorption with a very high binding constant was observed for the adsorption of melamine OTMS surface. On the other hand, high adsorption with an intermediate layer binding constant for the adsorption of melamine on the methacrylate surface was observed. Based on this, we propose using acrylate chemical functionality to develop molecularly imprinted polymer‐based melamine sensors.
期刊介绍:
Surface and Interface Analysis is devoted to the publication of papers dealing with the development and application of techniques for the characterization of surfaces, interfaces and thin films. Papers dealing with standardization and quantification are particularly welcome, and also those which deal with the application of these techniques to industrial problems. Papers dealing with the purely theoretical aspects of the technique will also be considered. Review articles will be published; prior consultation with one of the Editors is advised in these cases. Papers must clearly be of scientific value in the field and will be submitted to two independent referees. Contributions must be in English and must not have been published elsewhere, and authors must agree not to communicate the same material for publication to any other journal. Authors are invited to submit their papers for publication to John Watts (UK only), Jose Sanz (Rest of Europe), John T. Grant (all non-European countries, except Japan) or R. Shimizu (Japan only).
