摘要
Polyaniline (PANI) nanocomposites (NCs) based on cobalt (Co)-doped ZnO nanorods were fabricated (PANI-NCs) using chemical oxidation polymerization technique. Co-doped ZnO nanorods were synthesized using hydrothermal route. Microstructure characterization and UV–Visible absorption measurement confirm the formation of wurtzite ZnO nanostructured crystals. Introducing effect of Co-doped ZnO nanorods into PANI matrix on microstructural, optical, surface morphology and electrical properties of the investigated NCs were studied. The characterization of the fabricated NCs was examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) and four-probe DC electrical conductivity. Also, the photocatalytic activity of the fabricated NCs was examined using UV irradiation for Procion Blue dye wastewater oxidation. The photocatalytic experimental parameters were studied and the results revealed high photocatalytic activity reached to complete dye removal within 60 min of irradiation time (at pH 7.0 and room temperature). Finally, the data fitted with first-order kinetic model.
