Abstract::
In this article, we explored the possibility of controlling the reactivity of ZnO nanostructures
by modifying its surface with gold nanoparticles (Au NPs). By varying the concentration of Au with
different wt% (x = 0.01, 0.05, 0.08, 1 and 2), we have synthesized a series of (ZnO/Aux) nanocomposites
(NCs). A thorough investigation of the photocatalytic performance of different wt% of Au NPs on
ZnO nanosurface has been carried out. It was observed that ZnO/Au0.08 nanocomposite showed the highest
photocatalytic… Show more
