Herein, chemometric-assisted synthesis of electrochemical sensors based on electropolymerised ion-imprinted polymeric (e-IIP) films was explored. Co(II)-IIPs sensors were prepared by performing electropolymerisation procedures of polymerisation mixtures comprising varying concentrations of an electroactive o-aminophenol (o-AP) monomer and Co(II) ions, respectively, according to the Taguchi L9 experimental design, exploiting the simultaneous evaluation of other controlled parameters during electrosynthesis. Each e-IIP developed from Taguchi runs was compared with the respective non-imprinted polymer (NIP) films and fitted according to Langmuir-Freudlich isotherms. Distinctive patterns of low and high-affinity films were screened based on the qualities and properties of the developed IIPs in terms of binding kinetics (KD), imprinting factor, and the heterogeneity index of produced cavities. These results can provide a generic protocol for chemometric-assisted synthesis of e-IIPs based on poly-o-AP, providing highly stable, reproducible, and high-affinity imprinted polymeric films for monitoring purposes.

A novel method for detecting Cd(II) and Pb(II) in water using composite ion-imprinted membranes (Cd@Pb-IIM/Ag@MOF@CHI) was developed. Pre-polymerization ratios were optimized via computer simulations and applied on Ag@MOF@CHI-modified electrodes using infrared light initiation. Characterization of the membranes through SEM and electrochemical methods revealed detailed morphology and composition.

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), which first appeared over half a century ago, are now attracting considerable attention as artificial receptors, particularly for sensing. MIPs, especially applied to biomedical analysis in biofluids, contribute significantly to patient diagnosis at the point of care, thereby allowing health monitoring. Despite the importance given to MIPs, removal of templates and binding of analytes have received little attention and are currently the least focused steps in MIP development.

Reclamation of rare earths from secondary sources is in line with both environmental remediation and sustainable utilization of rare earth resources. Herein, neodymium Nd(III) imprinted polyethylene glycol-polyvinyl alcohol hybrid membrane (IIP-CS-PEG-PVA) with high selectivity, increased specific surface area, acid stability and easy recyclability was constructed using chitosan (CS) as functional monomer, polyethylene glycol (PEG) as porogenic agent, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as filmogen, and Nd(III) as template ion. Batch adsorption indicates, adsorption of IIP-CS-PEG-PVA for Nd(III) is induced by electrostatic interaction, reaching rapid equilibration in 35 min at pH = 5.

This study introduces a novel ion-imprinted polymer for the ultrasensitive detection of mercury(II) in water. The ion-imprinted polymer was synthesized via a simple bulk polymerization process using methacrylic acid as the functional monomer, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as the cross-linker, morpholine-4-carbodithioic acid phenyl ester as the chelating agent, and ammonium persulfate as the initiator. The electrochemical mercury(II) sensing capability of the ion-imprinted polymer was studied via the modification of a cost-effective carbon paste electrode.
