Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity of Polypyrrole/TiO2 Nanocomposites for Acid Violet Dye Degradation under UV Irradiation

Abstract-In-situ chemical polymerization was used to synthesize PPy/ TiO2 nanocomposite. The nanocomposite was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) to ensure the crystallite size, functional groups and morphology of the polymer nanocomposite. The band gap of th...

Fabrication Fe3O4/SiO2/TiO2 Nanocomposites and Degradation of Rhodamine B Dyes under UV Light Irradiation

Recycling and reusing of catalyst is an important factor to produce capable and low cast catalysts. Silica coated magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4/SiO2) were synthesized via a simple sol-gel method with the aid of sonication. Fe3O4 nanoparticles. After that a layer of TiO2 was constricted by hydrolyze and condensation of Teteranormalbuthyltitanate to produce Fe3O4/SiO2/TiO2 nanocompsite. As-synthe...

Cu Nanoparticles/Fluorine-Doped Tin Oxide (FTO) Nanocomposites for Photocatalytic H2 Evolution under Visible Light Irradiation

Copper nanoparticles/fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) nanocomposites were successfully prepared by a simple hydrothermal method. The synthesized nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-visible diffuse-reflectance spectrum (UV-VIS DRS), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectra, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The obta...
