Abstract:

Carbon quantum dots (CDs) were prepared by one-step microwave method using lactic acid as carbon precursor and polyethylene glycol as a surface modifier. The structure and properties of the CDs were investigated by transmission electron microscopy, fluorescence and ultraviolet. The fluorescence quenching effect of 12 kinds of molecules to the quantum dots was studied. A new method for fluorescence analysis of p-nitroaniline quenching CDs is established. The linear relationship is good in the concentration range of 6×10-6-1×10-4 mol/L, and the limit of detection is 8.76×10-6 mol/L. The test for p-nitroaniline in hair dye pastes reveals that p-nitroaniline is contained in the three hair dyeing creams, which are 89.7 mg/g in chestnut brown, 129.2 mg/g in purplish red and 44.4 mg/g in flaxen.

Key words: microwave, carbon quantum dot, p-nitroaniline, hair cream
