Immobilization of 2,2′-bipyridine-5,5′-dicarboxylic acid in layered octacalcium phosphate

Publication date: May 2019Source: Colloid and Interface Science Communications, Volume 30Author(s): Iori Yamada, Motohiro TagayaAbstractImmobilization of 2,2′-bipyridine-5,5′-dicarboxylic acid (Bpdc) into layered octacalcium phosphate was investigated in the hydrolysis process of α-tricalcium phosphate. 100 interlayer distance altered from 1.9 to 2.5–2.7 nm by the immobilization, suggesting the novel inorganic/organic nanohybrids. The nanohybrids exhibited the blue-shifted photoluminescence peaks with the higher internal quantum efficiency as compared with the case in the Bpdc alone.Graphical abstract
