Mn doped ZnO nanocomposite thin film coated on glass by a simple spin-coating method was used to degrade an azo textile dye from aqueous environment. Mn doped ZnO nanocomposite thin film was characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The photo-reduction activity of photocatalyst was evaluated using an azo textile […]
An one-pot method has been developed for the synthesis of azo dyes via sequential diazotization–diazo coupling of aromatic amines with coupling agents at room temperature in the presence of Bi(NO3)3. 5H2O. Short reaction times, high yields, a clean process, simple methodology, easy work-up and green conditions are advantages of this protocol.
A convenient, one-pot method for the synthesis of diazonium salt has been developed by the sequential diazotization of aromatic amines with NaNO2, polymer- supported periodic acid (PPIA) and 2-naphthole under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. By using this method, several types of aromatic amine, containing electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups, were rapidly converted to the corresponding […]
The effect of various parameters (pH, irradiation time, nanophotocatalyst dosages and temperature) on photocatalytic degradation of Direct Red 23 (DR 23) and Direct Brown 166 (DB 166) using pure InVO4 and InVO4-TiO2 nanocomposite were investigated under visible light irradiation. InVO4 and InVO4-TiO2 were synthesized by hydrothermal and sol-gel/ hydrothermal treatment techniques, respectively and characterized by […]
