| Abstract: | Nanoboxes, nanocubes and nanospheres of cuprous oxides were readily synthesized by reducing Cu(CH3COO)2·H2O with ethylene glycol at different concentrations of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone); the formation mechanism of as-synthesized Cu2O nanostructures was investigated. Moreover, we report the highly selective adsorption characteristic of as-synthesized Cu2O nanostructures to anionic dyes and suggest the mechanism is electrostatic adsorption. |
