Photodegradation efficiency of methyl orange and Alizarin Red S in waste water using poly(azomethine)/TiO2 nanocomposite

Photodegradation, thermodynamic and kinetic study of cationic and anionic dyes from effluents using polyazomethine/ZnO and polyazomethine/TiO2 nanocomposites

“…Under sonication, ZnO or TiO 2 nanoparticles are liberated in acetone and simultaneously added to the polymeric solution. The precipitated ZnO incorporated polyazomethine (PNZ) or TiO 2 incorporated polyazomethine (PNT) composite material is filtered, washed repeatedly in acetone and dried out [24].FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and Energy Dispersive Analysis X-ray powder X-ray diffraction were used to verify the synthesised polyazomethines (PNT & PNZ) [25][26][27][28][29][30][31].…”
