Abstract:Textile dyeing releases over 80% of industrial effluents without proper treatment. Dye discharged into effluents typically need degradation before release into aquatic environments. In this regard, the present paper reports the nanocomposite copper oxide/polyaniline (CuO/PANI) is successfully synthesized by in situ chemical oxidative polymerization method and investigate their catalytic activity against organic dyes and nitro-compounds. CuO nanoparticles are synthesized by colloidal sol-gel method using oxalic… Show more
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.
