Preparation and application of copper ferrite nanoparticles for degradation of methyl orange

Abstract: In this work, we have successfully prepared copper ferrite (CuFe 2 O 4 ) nanoparticles through a modified sol-gel method by of copper (II) nitrate, iron (III) nitrate, and starch as starting materials in water as solvent. The formation of as-produced nanoparticles and their structure, shape and elemental composition were analyzed by means of several techniques including X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis, scanning electron microscopy, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The magnetic pro… Show more

“…In addition, they have various technological applications such as energy storage devices [4], magnetic storage media [5], spintronic and electromagnetic devices [6; 7]. Besides, ferrites were used as catalysts for photocatalytic degradation of organic matter [8,9,10], oxidation of dimethyl ether [11] and mercury [12], and reduction of 4-nitrophenol [13]. The spinel structure of ferrites provides additional sites for the catalytic reaction, which leads to an increase in the efficiency of the photocatalytic decomposition [14,15].…”

“…Subsequently, the thermally induced transformations of the bimetal Fe−Cu oxalate sample were studied by in‐situ XRD, ex‐situ TMS and N 2 adsorption at 77.4 K. The formed solid solution of the Fe−Cu oxalate can serve as a precursor for the preparation of amorphous Fe−Cu oxides or copper ferrite particles at relatively low temperatures, especially if compared to the classical solid‐state reaction approaches. Recently, the copper ferrite particles were studied for the use in a number of applications, e. g. water treatment, [40,41] gas sensors, [42–45] biomedicine, [46] energy storage [47–49] and catalysis (e. g. degradation of dyes [50–53] and other organic compounds, [54–57] or water gas shift [58] ). Additionally, the Fe−Cu materials were also studied in other catalytic reactions, e. g. the hydrogenation of CO 2 [59–62] …”
