Abstract:
We report on the functionalization of layered copper(II) hydroxide acetate with benzoic acid. The grafting of benzoate groups is characterized by thermogravimetry/differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The submicrometer fiber generation of the grafted material is clearly demonstrated through scanning electron microscopy. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.
