Abstract

In aqueous medium at room temperature Ag(I) forms a metallogel with vanadate ions which doesn’t have any carbon in the gel skeleton. The serendipitously discovered inorganic gel, which involves a reasonably large volume of water, is capable of sequestering gas, dye and toxic pollutants from water bodies.
