Article Synopsis
- Research is focused on creating luminescent coordination polymers that can specifically sense lead (Pb) in water, which is important for chemistry and environmental safety.
- Two new water-stable zinc-based polymers were synthesized and tested for their ability to detect various metal cations, showing strong luminescent responses when exposed to lead.
- The polymers demonstrated a selective and effective fluorescent response to lead over other common metal ions, making them promising candidates for future sensing applications in aqueous environments.
