A core-shell surface imprinted uranyl magnetic chelating adsorbent (UMCA) was synthesized by combining the sol-gel process with the surface molecular imprinting technique (SMIT). A specific salophen and uranyl-salophen were designed and synthesized. Then, the synthesized uranyl-salophen complex was used as a template (in which uranyl is the target analyte), 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane as a functional monomer and tetraethylorthosilicate as a cross-linker. The obtained UMCA was characterized by a variety of modern analytical and detection techni...
