Nickel cobaltite (NCO@rGO-1) and CuO/Fe₂O₃-doped composites (NCCFO@rGO-2 to NCCFO@rGO-4) were synthesized with different dopant concentrations. The NCPs were characterized using XRD, PL, FTIR, UV–Vis, and Raman spectroscopy techniques. XRD analysis confirmed the formation of spinel cubic structures, showing a reduction in crystallinity with increased doping levels. Raman spectra displayed redshifts and intensity reduction with increased dopant levels, indicating the successful incorporation of CuO and Fe₂O₃. PL emission peaked at 632 nm, with intensity decreasing upon doping. UV–Vis spectra indicated a bandgap of 1.59 eV for the highly doped NCPs. Photocatalytic performance under visible light showed 95% degradation of cresol red (CR) dye in 80 min, aniline degradation of 89% in 120 min and 71% degradation of benzimidazole in 120 min with a rate constant of 0.03894 min⁻<sup>1</sup>, 0.01998 min⁻<sup>1</sup>, and 0.01175 min⁻<sup>1</sup>, respectively. Enhanced photocatalytic efficiency was attributed to improved charge separation and active sites provided by rGO, alongside a double Z-scheme mechanism facilitating electron transport. The NCPs exhibited stable performance over five recycling cycles, underscoring their potential for long-term pollutant removal. These findings suggest that the synthesized NCPs are promising candidates for sustainable wastewater treatment, contributing to environmental protection efforts.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":267,"journal":{"name":"Ceramics International","volume":"51 7","pages":"Pages 8231-8248"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143512120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
