Hydrothermal method in presence of different concentration of glycine as surfactant was used to prepare zinc oxide nanoparticles. Different techniques were used to describe the prepared nanocomposites. This reveals that the concentration of glycine acting significant role in zinc oxide band gap. The zinc oxide nanoparticles photocatalytic performances were studied by measuring degradation of methylene blue under UV light. Photocatalytic parameters such as the concentration of glycine, photocatalyst dose of zinc oxide which prepared by 6 mmol of glycine (ZnO-6G) were studied.
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.
