A novel Ag@α-Fe2O3/NiCo layered double hydroxide nanocomposite for superior photocatalytic degradation of malachite green dye under visible and sunlight
Background
This study aimed to enhance the photocatalytic efficiency of NiCo layered double hydroxide (LDH) by forming composites with Fe2O3 and improving its visible light responsiveness through Ag loading. The goal was to expand the light absorption range of NiCo LDH and enhance its photocatalytic performance for environmental cleanup, particularly in degrading organic pollutants.
Methods
The researchers synthesized binary NiCo/Fe2O3 and ternary Ag3@10Fe2O3/NiCo LDH (NCF10A3 LDH) composites by incorporating Fe2O3 nanoparticles (NPs) for enhanced visible light response and Ag NPs for improved photocatalytic efficiency via the surface plasmonic effect. The composites’ photocatalytic activity was tested by degrading malachite green (MG) dye under both visible light and sunlight. The structural, optical, and morphological properties were characterized using XRD, DRS, FTIR, HR-TEM, and FE-SEM.
Significant findings
The ternary composite (NCF10A3 LDH) demonstrated improved photocatalytic performance, achieving 81.2 % degradation (k = 1.25 × 10−2 min⁻¹) under visible light and 98.6 % degradation (k = 3.33 × 10−2 min⁻¹) under sunlight. The band gap of NiCo LDH reduced from 2.40 eV to 1.74 eV, enhancing performance. The degradation pathway was proposed based on HR-MS fragments, and the catalyst showed excellent durability, remaining stable and reusable for up to five cycles.
