Abstract

This communication describes carboxyl-functionalized nanochains with amorphous carbon shell (18 nm) and magnetic core using ferrocene as a single reactant under the induction of an external magnetic field (0.40 T), which shows a superparamagnetic behavior and magnetization saturation of 38.6 emu gāˆ’1. Because of mesoporous structure (3.8 nm) and surface negative charge (āˆ’35.18 mV), the nanochains can be used as adsorbent for removing the heavy metal ions (90%) from aqueous solution.
