Abstract:Carbon dots (CDs) and graphene oxide (GO) are rapidly emerging carbon-based nanomaterials that, due to their growing applications, will inevitably find their way to natural waters; however, their environmental fate is mostly unknown. Carbon dots with different surface functionality and graphene oxide were fabricated and characterized. Their surface charge, given by the zeta potential, and their hydrodynamic diameter in suspension were investigated under a variety of environmentally relevant conditions. The eff… Show more
