UV-Vis adsorption studies of Nickel-Cobalt ferrite developed by combustion method

Abstract

Present work deals with the synthesis of magnetic Nickel-Cobalt spinel ferrite [Ni0.5Co0.5Fe2O4] nanoparticles using combustion method, and adsorption of different dyes using synthesized ferrite material. Synthesized ferrite material has been characterized by using FTIR spectroscopy. Nickel-Cobalt ferrite material has worked very efficiently as an adsorbent and can absorb different dyes from their aqueous solutions. Its magnetic nature gives a fair chance to extract it back from the solutions, by applying magnetic field. Extracted ferrite materials don’t lose its potency to adsorb. Hence, it can be used in number of wastewater treatment cycles. Adsorption capacity and reusability of these ferrite materials make them suitable for future alternate adsorbents in the field of wastewater treatment.

Photocatalytic and Antibacterial Activity of CoFe2O4 Nanoparticles from Hibiscus rosa-sinensis Plant Extract

“…The absorbance peak of CoFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles was located at 557 nm, which describes the UV region optical entity of CoFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles, as shown in Figure 3 . The UV region absorbance spectrum of CoFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles denotes the enriched electron production over the surface [ 33 ]. The plant molecules’ interaction over the cobalt and iron source materials constructed the electron mitigation in the UV region.…”
