Abstract:Because of the expensive nature of sensors used to detect heavy metals and the severe health risks associated with certain heavy metals, there is a pressing need to develop cost-effective materials that are highly efficient in detecting these metals. A flower-shaped WO2I2-Poly(1H-pyrrole) (WO2I2/P1HP) nanocomposite thin film is synthesized through the oxidation of 1-H pyrrole using iodine and subsequent reaction with Na2WO4. The nanocomposite exhibits a distinctive flower-like morphology with an average size o… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
