Photocatalytic degradation of toxic organic compound in water, soil and air by semiconductor catalysts such as TiO2 and ZnO have received much attention over the last two decades. However, the low quantum yield, easy agglomeration and difficult post-separation of these inorganic catalysts limit their application for large-scale applications. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are the latest class […]
In this study, a new and effective catalyst was prepared by supporting the α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles on a metal-organic framework (MOF). The synthesis of nano α-Fe2O3 photocatalyst was performed according to the reflux condensation method. The MOF was synthesized using cadmium nitrate and terephthalic acid. The nano α-Fe2O3 stabilized on the MOF by the solid-state distribution […]
