The invention discloses a method for one-step synthesis of fluorescent carbon dots with tea leaves as a
carbon source and application of the fluorescent carbon dots, and relates to the technical field of
carbon dot synthesis, the technical key point is that the method specifically comprises the following steps: S1,
carbon source pretreatment: Tieguanyin tea residues and
green tea residues are cleaned, dried and prepared into
powder; s2,
carbon dot synthesis: weighing 0.3000 g of Tieguanyin tea residue
powder and 0.3000 g of
green tea residue
powder, respectively pouring the Tieguanyin tea residue powder and the
green tea residue powder into different
polytetrafluoroethylene high-pressure reaction kettles, adding
distilled water, and putting the
polytetrafluoroethylene high-pressure reaction kettles into a constant-temperature blast
drying box for a synthesis reaction. The green tea and the Tieguanyin tea are used as raw materials, the fluorescent carbon dots are synthesized through a one-step hydrothermal method, by optimizing the optimal temperature and time for preparing the carbon dots, the synthesized carbon dots have
pH dependence and meanwhile show good
fluorescence performance,
photobleaching resistance,
salt resistance and water
solubility, the synthesis process is simple, consumed time is short, and the raw materials are low in price and easy to obtain; in addition, the method can be applied to research and development, preparation,
fluorescence analysis and biological marking of novel fluorescent
carbon nanomaterials.
