Nanocomposite of zinc zirconia for better degradation of an organic dye
Source abstract
Abstract
Zinc zirconia nanocomposite was synthesized by chemical co-precipitation route using zinc chloride (ZnCl2), zirconium oxychloride octahydrate (ZrOCl2·8H2O), sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and ethylene diaminetetra acetic acid (EDTA). XRD, UV, SEM and EDX measurements were employed to characterize the as-prepared nanoparticles of zinc oxide (ZnO NPs), zirconia (ZrO2 NPs) and the zinc zirconia nanocomposite (ZZNC). Photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye in polluted water was investigated under visible light using ZZNC as the photocatalyst. UV/Vis spectrum confirmed an enhancement in the photocatalytic activity of ZZNC in MB dye-contaminated water. It was observed that more than 80% of the dye was degraded from polluted water while using ZZNC as a photocatalyst in 2.5 h.
