摘要
This paper focuses on a cost effective and environment friendly technique for green synthesis of cerium oxide (CeO2) nano particles from cerium (III) nitrate hexahydrate solution by co-precipitation method using the leaf extract of different species of Artemisia pallens which acts as reducing and capping agent. The prepared CeO2 nano particles were characterized by XRD, TEM, FTIR, UV–Vis spectroscopy. The Photocatalytic activity of the prepared ceria powders was determined by their ability to degrade Methylene blue solution under UV-light radiation. The photo degradation result observed with 10 mg/L ceria at pH = 11 for 180 min have highest output and pseudo 1st order rate constant was 0.983.
