A facile, fast and environmentally friendly gas–liquid plasma method for synthesizing Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 nanosheets is reported for the first time. The preparation process just takes 12 min using Cu(NO 3 ) 2 aqueous solution without any other chemical agents. The Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 nanosheets exhibit much higher methyl orange (MO) adsorption capacity (428.8 mg MO g −1 ) than that prepared by the solvothermal method (212.8 mg MO g −1 ).
