Abstract
New advancements of photocatalytic activity with higher efficiency, low price are most important, which is challenging in industrialized and many fields. We have introduced CuNiO2 and CuNiO2/rGO nanocomposite was generally prepared by the hydrothermal treatment and tested to the photocatalytic studies. Photocatalytic measurements of CuNiO2 with different weight percentages CuNiO2/rGO (25/75), (50/50), and (75/25) are achieved to the efficiency under visible light, in this case, CuNiO2/rGO (50/50) composite have the highest performance is scrutinized. This was obeyed for a synergistic effect between CuNiO2 nanoparticles and rGO composites. Furthermore, the CuNiO2, CuNiO2/rGO (25/75), (50/50), and (75/25) nanocomposite were tested by several analyses like XRD, FT-IR, DRS UV Visible spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and FESEM & HRTEM investigations. In this regard all measurements are very clear and satisfied; therefore we are encouraged for future developing environmental applications.
