TiInCrO6-nanomaterial synthesis, characterization and multi applications

Abstract

In this article, we reported the highly reusable undoped titanium dioxide and doped TiInCrO6 nanomaterial by simple precipitation method and sonication technique. The prepared nanomaterials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy with elementary dispersive X-ray, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, techniques and ultraviolet and visible-diffuse reflectance studies. The influence of operational parameters such as the effect of catalyst loading dye concentration and chemical oxygen demand measurements had also been investigated. The synthesized TiInCrO6 nanomaterial was proposed as the promising photocatalyst for the degradation of rhodamine B (Rh B) dye and reusability. The mechanism of the photocatalytic effect of the TiInCrO6 nanomaterial has been discussed. Thus, the use of TiInCrO6 in water purification showed potential. The photodegradation of Rh B dye was well described by pseudo-first-order kinetics and high quantum yield. The photovoltaic characterization had been studied, cyclic voltammogram measurements. The antibacterial activity of the prepared nanomaterials had been investigated against Gram negative Escherichia coli and Gram positive Staphylococcus aureus bacterial strains.
