Insight into the ChargeRatioTuned Solar Vapor Generation of .
WEBIn this paper, by incorporating PIC as a gel matrix, with lowcost coal powders as efficient solar absorbents, a hydrogel/coal powder composites (HCC)based SVG has been prepared for efficient solar driven water purifiion. In particular, we investigated the effect of the charge ratio of polyanionstopolyions on the SVG performance of HCC.
