Background: As the copper ferrite gains more attention due to its unique electronic, thermal, and catalytic properties, the need to explore the mechanism of its formation is becoming a task to be studied.Results: The mechanism of copper ferrite formation was studied by in situ XRD, and IR results showed comparison that the formation of Fe 3 O 4 was formed by in situ heating. Conclusions: These results shed light on the formation of ferrite first begun with the formation of Fe 3 O 4 , and then, incorporation of Cu 2+ ion is done.
In this study, a series of Titanium to Zirconium ZSM-5 framework was prepared. Elucidations of the structure were performed using XRD, IR, DR, and SEM images. The results showed that Ti and/or Zr could exist in either tetrahedral or octahedral sites. Simultaneous dye photodegradation with the removal of heavy metal was performed and completely studied with fourdimensional curves. The analysis of the data showed that the metal ions could play an important role in the photodegradation mechanism of organic dye. Photodegradation mechanism is elucidated and kinetic studies showed that the degradation followed up pseudo-first-order kinetics. For the first time deconvolution of IR spectra could be assigned for the elucidation of the structure of prepared materials. The prepared materials are found to be efficient in multiple removals of organic/inorganic pollutants which raise its economic impact.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
