SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL Fe-MIL-88B/GO NANO COMPOSITE APPLIED IN THE PHOTOCATALYTIC DEGRADATION OF REACTIVE DYE IN AQUEOUS SOLUTION

Abstract

An Fe-MIL-88B/graphene oxide (GO) composite was successfully
synthesized by the solvothermal method to yield a novel Fe-MIL-88B /GO
composite. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2
adsorption-desorption (BET), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier
transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), The as-prepared Fe-MIL-88B/GO
nanocomposite was tested the photocatalytic degradation of reactive dye
(reactive red-RR195) in aqueous solution. The Fe-MIL-88B /GO composite
exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity. The research suggested a potential
application of Fe-MIL-88B /GO composite as a highly efficient photocatalytic
degradation of reactive dye in aqueous solution.
