A novel uranium-imprinted adsorbent (AO-Imp fiber) was prepared by radiation-induced crosslinking of amidoxime-functionalized ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber (AO fiber). The porous structure was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) spectroscopy after ion imprinting. This ion-imprinted fiber exhibited enhanced adsorption selectivity for uranium in the form of both UO₂²⁻ and [UO₂(CO₃)₃]⁴⁻ in batch experiments. Compared with AO fiber, the adsorption capacity of the AO-Imp(250) fiber for uranium increased from 0.36 mg g⁻¹ to 1.00 mg g⁻¹ in simulated seawater and from 5.02 mg g⁻¹ to 12.03 mg g⁻¹ in simulated acid effluent, while its adsorption capacities for other co-existing metal ions were particularly low. This study provides an approach to prepare ion-imprinted adsorbents without introducing crosslinking reagents, which may be a promising method for uranium extraction.
