Phenols in water resources result from their presence in pesticides and fungicides, among other goods, and are harmful ecotoxins. Colorless polymeric films with pendant diazonium groups attached to the acrylic polymer structure were designed and prepared for use as sensory matrices to detect phenol-derived species in water. Upon dipping the sensory films into aqueous media, the material swells, and if phenols are present, they react with the diazonium groups of the polymer to render a highly colored azo group, giving rise to the recognition phenomenon. The color development can be visually followed for a qualitative determination of phenols. Additionally, quantitative analysis can be performed by two different techniques: a) by using a UV–vis spectrophotometer (limit of detection of 0.12 ppm for 2-phenylphenol) and/or b) by using a smartphone with subsequent RGB analysis (limit of detection of 30 ppb for 2-phenylphenol) Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional (FEDER) and the Spanish Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI) (MAT2017-84501-R) application/pdf eng Elsevier Journal of Hazardous Materials. 2019, V. 365, p. 725-732 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhazmat.2018.11.066 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/MICINN/MAT2017-84501-R Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Polymeric sensors Film shaped sensors Colorimetric sensors Phenol sensors Chemistry Química Polymer films containing chemically anchored diazonium salts with long-term stability as colorimetric sensors info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion
