Pyrrole-Based Composites for Metal Extraction and Analysis
Project ID#: D2018-57Invention DescriptionThe researchers at the University of Toledo have developed a chelating polypyrrole powder that can be used for filtration by directly mixing with samples and passing the sample through a filter. Desorption is then accomplished by simply dropping the pH. Applications• Selective microextraction devices•...
