This work demonstrates the preparation of graphene-oxide (GO)-Fe(3+) hybrids nanosheets and their high bleaching efficiency on the dye "Reactive Red 120 (RR 120)" by using sonocatalytic degradation. Sonocatalytic degradation was enhanced by using oxidants like PMS (peroxomonosulphate), PDS (peroxodisulphate), H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) and KIO4 (potassium periodate). Our observations manifested that the degradation of the dye "RR 120" was found to be multiplied by addition of oxidants in the order of PMS>H2O2>PDS>KIO4. The effect of inorganic ions was studied by the addition of SO4(2-), Cl(-), H2PO4(-) and HCO3(-). These results revealed that an addition of inorganic anionic decreases the degradation efficiency of RR 120 at high concentration. The trend of decreased degradation efficiency was SO(-)4
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
