The preparation and application of novel nanocatalysts for oxidation reaction via a simple, effective, green method remains a challenge; thus, in this study, a facile and eco-friendly approach is suggested to fabricate pomegranate peel extract (PPE) functionalized on silicate-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2-PPE). The physicochemical characteristics of the magnetic Fe3O4@SiO2-PPE nanocomposite were evaluated using Fourier-transform infrared […]
Cuprous oxide nanocubes (Cu2O NCBs) were successfully functionalized with graphene quantum dots (GQDs) to form GQDs/Cu2O NCBs composites material with highly plasmonic property and photocatalytic activity. Herein, GQDs were synthesized by a hydrothermal method at 190°C for 8 h using natural sources of wheat flour and ascorbic acid as precursors and reducing agents, respectively. Cu2O […]
