Abstract
Co–Zr doped Ni ferrite substituted polyaniline (PANI) nanocomposites were prepared using polymerization reaction method. NiFeCo0.5Zr0.5O4 with 12.5%, 25%, 37.5% and 50% PANI (A1, A2, A3 and A4) were used to obtain better photocatalytic efficiency. XRD, UV/VIS, BET, and FESEM were employed to characterize the PANI/ferrite nanocomposites. The effect of reaction time and nanoparticle concentrations on the photocatalytic degradation were thoroughly evaluated. XRD analysis confirmed the phase of NiFeCo0·5Zr0·5O4ferrite, while FESEM analysis was performed to investigate the surface morphology of the nanocomposites. The crystallinity was increased with the Co–Zr doped Ni ferrite contents in the...
