Functionalization with same functional group results in varied lead adsorption performance for different nanostructured carbon materials.
Nanoparticles have been attracting attention because they can significantly improve the performance of membranes when added in small amounts.
Nitrogen/phosphorus-doped carbon dots (N, P-CDs) with a quantum yield as high as 76.5% were synthesized by carbonizing maize starch via a facile ethanol solvothermal approach and utilized for the detection of Fe3+.
Nitrogen–phosphorus doped graphitic nano onion-like structures.
