“…Other bands at 1570 cm −1 and 1429 cm −1 can be ascribed to aromatic C–C bonds. Intensive bands at 1167, 1112 and 1060 cm −1 coming from P=O and two P–OH, respectively, confirm the presence of phosphonate groups in the analyzed sample [4–6]. The broad band centered at 3370 cm −1 refers to –OH groups in adsorbed water.…”

“…However, the phosphorous content was comparatively low. The reaction of a triethyl phosphite with an alkyl halide (Arbuzov reaction) was used by Liu et al for grafting phosphonates to GO [6]. The as-prepared phosphonated GO was successfully applied to adsorb U(VI) from acidic wastewater.…”

“…Effective functionalization by fully scalable, low-cost methods and detailed characterization of the synthesized nanomaterials is the first step towards utilizing the whole spectrum of applications. Functionalization of carbonaceous nanomaterials with phosphonic groups offers great potential for various applications, e.g., in energy conversion and storage [5,10], flame retardation [4,11], catalysis [12], tissue engineering [13], and purification air and water [6,14]. …”

Graphene oxide was functionalized with simultaneous reduction to produce phosphonated reduced graphene oxide in a novel, fully scalable, one-pot method. The phosphonic derivative of graphene was obtained through the reaction of graphene oxide with phosphorus trichloride in water. The newly synthesized reduced graphene oxide derivative was fully characterized by using spectroscopic methods along with thermal analysis. The morphology of the samples was examined by electron microscopy. The electrical studies revealed that the functionalized graphene derivative behaves in a way similar to chemically or thermally reduced graphene oxide, with an activation energy of 0.014 eV.

“…Afterward, the sorption percentage sharply decreases when pH is higher than 8.0. Increasing the solution pH can decrease the electrostatic repulsion between UO 2 2+ and the positively charged surface of FAG, and consequently, promote the sorption amounts (Liu et al, 2015). Nevertheless, when pH values exceed 8.0, the sorption amount begins to fall off with increasing pH values.…”

In this study, graphene was functionalized with furfuryl alcohol (FA) through the DielsAlder reaction. The as-prepared FA functionalized graphene (FAG) was characterized by XRD, Raman, TEM, AFM, FT-IR and TG. The sorption performance of the obtained FAG toward radionuclides was evaluated. The maximum sorption capacities from the Langmuir model were calculated to be 1.178, 1.947, 1.431 and 1.608 mmol g À1 for U(VI), Eu(III), Sr(II), and Co(II), respectively, at T = 303 K and pH = 3.0, indicating the hierarchical binding affinity of the FAG surface toward the radionuclides in the order Eu(III) > Co(II) > Sr(II) > U(VI). Based on the experimental results presented in this study, it is clear that FAG can be potentially used as a promising candidate for the sorption of radionuclides. Ó 2016 The Authors.

“…Xia Liu In this study, phosphate-functionalized graphene oxide (PGO) was prepared by grafting triethyl phosphate onto the surface of GO using Arbuzov reaction. The application of the PGO to remove U(VI) from aqueous solution was investigated with a maximum adsorption capacity of 251.7 mg/g at pH ¼ 4.0 ± 0.1 and T ¼ 303 K. Experimental results gave a better removal efficiency toward U(VI) on PGO surface than other heavy metal ions at acidic solution, indicating the selective extraction of U(VI) from environmental pollutants [3].…”
