A simple, highly sensitive, accurate and selective method for determination of trace amounts of Ni2+ in water samples. In this paper, Dioctylphthalate (DOP) was used to encapsulate nano-Fe3O4 and produce a nano-Fe3O4-DOP sorbent based new sorbent was prepared. This was treated with ethylenediamine (ED) in another solvent-free procedure for the formation of a novel nano-Fe3O4-DOP-ED. Flame atomi...
