Bifunctional Reduced Graphene Oxide Derivatives for PFOA Adsorption
ChemistryEurope, EarlyView.A bifunctional graphene‐based material is developed for selective PFAS adsorption from water. Thermally reduced graphene oxide is modified with quaternary ammonium groups and fluorinated chains, promoting electrostatic and fluorine–fluorine interactions. Surface functionality is characterized by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy,
