A new Cd(II)-imprinting polymer was synthesised based on glycidyl methacrylate (Fe₃O₄@GMA@IIP) and employed to develop a dispersive magnetic solid-phase extraction method for the preconcentration prior to the determination of Cd(II) from the environmental samples. A central composite design (CCD) based on response surface methodology was used for optimization of the process variables and the material shows the promising saturation adsorption capacity of 28.21 mg g⁻¹ under the optimum pH of 4.9 within 15.2 min at saturation concentration 914 μg mL⁻¹. The experimental data were well described by Sips isotherm model and Brouers–Sotolongo fractal kinetic model that indicated the surface heterogeneity and involvement of both chemisorption and physisorption process. Thermodynamic results documented the endothermic and spontaneous nature of adsorption. The sorbent manifest the economic feasibility maintaining its sorption efficiency after the regeneration by 1 M HNO₃ and reusability up to 6 adsorption/desorption cycles. The developed method exhibited the preconcentration factor of 30 and a high degree of tolerance for matrix ions. Limit of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) were calculated as 3.054 and 10.182 μg L⁻¹ respectively. The developed method was validated by the standard reference material and spiking addition method in real samples, and obtained results showed good agreement in accordance with spiking values. The ease of magnetic separation, high selectivity, good adsorption capacity and faster kinetics made this material a promising candidate for Cd(II) determination in various food and aqueous samples.
