Efficient catalytic wet oxidation of phenol using iron acetylacetonate complexes anchored on carbon nanofibres Original Research Article

Iron acetylacetonate complexes anchored on oxidized carbon nanofibres (CNFs) were prepared by a three steps procedure: (i) oxidation of commercial CNFs by treatment with HNO3, (ii) synthesis of acetylacetonate (acac) functional groups on the oxidized CNFs
