Effect of bismuth on copper zinc ferrites for photocatalytic applications

Effect of bismuth on copper zinc ferrites for photocatalytic applications In the present work, copper zinc bismuth ferrites were synthesized and calcined at 900 °C and 1000 °C using combustion technique. The structure of synthesized material is studied using the X-ray diffraction analysis. The presence of functional groups was determined by the FTIR analysis. Optical studies reveal the absorption and scattering of light by the magnetic nanoparticles; an enhancement of photocatalytic properties is observed. A surface analysis reveals that the nanoparticles possess homogeneous microstructure with uniform size and exhibit a cauliflower-like morphology. Using a room temperature VSM analysis, the saturation magnetization and coercivity were determined for calcined ferrites at 900 °C and 1000 °C and the variation with respect to temperature was discussed in detail. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of the Australian Ceramic Society Springer Journals

Abstract

In the present work, copper zinc bismuth ferrites were synthesized and calcined at 900 °C and 1000 °C using combustion technique. The structure of synthesized material is studied using the X-ray diffraction analysis. The presence of functional groups was determined by the FTIR analysis. Optical studies reveal the absorption and scattering of light by the magnetic nanoparticles; an enhancement of photocatalytic properties is observed. A surface analysis reveals that the nanoparticles possess homogeneous microstructure with uniform size and exhibit a cauliflower-like morphology. Using a room temperature VSM analysis, the saturation magnetization and coercivity were determined for calcined ferrites at 900 °C and 1000 °C and the variation with respect to temperature was discussed in detail.
