Eco-Friendly And Solvent Free Synthesis Of Cerium Oxide Nano Particles Using Methacrylic Acid As Organic Dispersant. An Extended Application to the Removal of Orange G Dye.
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
Cerium oxide nanoparticles have been synthesized by microwave method using cerium nitrate and methacrylic acid as precursors. The material was structurally characterized by XRD and SEM and the optical characterization was carried out using UV–visible and Photoluminescence spectro fluorimeter techniques. The X ray studies reveal the face centered cubic structures for cerium oxide nano particles. The purity of the sample was confirmed using XRD and EDAX. The absorption studies are used to confirm the bleaching of the dye in the presence of cerium oxide nano particle. The decolourization of the dye and also the decrease in the absorption peak confirms the removal of the dye..
