The toxic Cr(VI) from industrial wastewater pose serious threat to the human beings and eco-systems. To reduce the operation processes and enhance the removal efficiency of Cr(VI), targeted design of functionalized material is critical in practical applications. Herein, we developed a one-step strat...
