▎ 摘  要

NOVELTY - Preparation of hydrogel involves dispersing graphene oxide in anhydrous dichloromethane, adding 4-dimethylaminopyridine and bromophenylacetic acid, dissolving N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide in dichloromethane and dripping into the obtained solution, maintaining for 1-72 hours to obtain a bromine-graphene oxide, adding N-isopropylacrylamide, ascorbic acid, copper bromide, pentamethyldiethylenetriamine, ethyl 2-bromoisobutyrate and isopropanol (or dimethylformamide), reacting, maintaining for 1-72 hours to obtain an N-isopropylacrylamide-graphene oxide, performing pickering emulsification using N-isopropylacrylamide-graphene oxide, deionized water and toluene, grafting with polydopamine using tris hydrochloride buffer to obtain an N-isopropylacrylamide-graphene oxide-polydopamine Janus nanosheets, adding the nanosheets, acrylic acid, distilled water, free radical initiator, preferably potassium persulfate, acryloyl- beta -cyclodextrin and ferric chloride hexahydrate, and reacting. USE - Preparation of hydrogel used for desalinating seawater.
