Investigating the properties of GO/(ZnxNi1−x)O composites prepared by Sol–gel route for photocatalytic and gas sensing applications
This research studies the effects of volume ratios on the properties of GO/(ZnxNi1−x)O ternary composite prepared by a sol–gel technique. The ratios were produced by keeping the volume of graphene oxide (GO) constant whilst varying the volumes of zinc oxide, ZnO and nickel oxide, NiO to produce GO/ZnO0.2NiO0.8, GO/ZnO0.5NiO0.5, and GO/ZnO0.8NiO0.2 nanocomposites. The structural, morphological, elemental, optical, gas sensing, and photocatalytic properties of the synthesized nanocomposites have been investigated. EDX results confirmed the presence of graphene oxide, nickel oxide, and zinc oxide in the composites. The bandgap energy values exhibited a reduction as compared to the constituent compounds which range from 3.1 to 3.4 eV. Functional groups belonging to carbon, oxygen, nickel, zinc were obtained. The conductivity and activation energy of the ternary composites was also determined. The gas sensing properties were tested for NH3, H2S, and Cl2 at 100 ppm and 10 V; with the highest sensitivity recorded for H2S. The synthesized ternary composites were highly effective in degradation of dye with the efficiencies of 87.3%, 86.7%, and 88.0% respectively, obtained at 0.022 per minute, 0.020 per minute, 0.024 per minute for pseudo-first order rate constant. Results from the characterization show potential application of the composites in gas sensing and photocatalytic devices.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics is an established refereed companion to the Journal of Materials Science. It publishes papers on materials and their applications in modern electronics, covering the ground between fundamental science, such as semiconductor physics, and work concerned specifically with applications. It explores the growth and preparation of new materials, as well as their processing, fabrication, bonding and encapsulation, together with the reliability, failure analysis, quality assurance and characterization related to the whole range of applications in electronics. The Journal presents papers in newly developing fields such as low dimensional structures and devices, optoelectronics including III-V compounds, glasses and linear/non-linear crystal materials and lasers, high Tc superconductors, conducting polymers, thick film materials and new contact technologies, as well as the established electronics device and circuit materials.
