Detection of Hydrogen Phosphate (\({\text{HPO}}_{4}^{{2 - }}\)) and Hydrocarbonate (\({\text{HCO}}_{3}^{ - }\)) Using Cetyltrimethylammonium Bromide-Capped 1,10-Phenanthroline Nanoparticles for Environmental Monitoring
摘要
Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-capped 1,10-phenanthroline nanoparticles (1,10-PHTNPs) were synthesized using a reprecipitation method and characterized by spectroscopic and surface charge analyses, confirming a stable colloidal suspension (average size of 141 nm, zeta potential of +42 mV). The sensing mechanism is based on fluorescence quenching through electrostatic interactions between the cationic nanoparticles and
