| Summary: | This work studies the process of formation of the spinel structure of nickel (II) -copper (II) ferrite. A possible mechanism for the formation of single-phase spinel samples is considered. It consists of the stage of formation of chelate complexes of nickel (II), copper (II), iron (III) cations with citric acid and their subsequent thermal decomposition. The materials obtained are studied by X-ray phase analysis and the BET technique. The catalytic activity of the synthesized ferrite Cu0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 in the process of oxidative destruction of methyl orange in the presence of hydrogen peroxide is established. It is shown that the process is significantly accelerated with increasing temperature. The activation energy of the reaction was computed. It was found that the activation energy decreases in the presence of a catalyst. The results can be used to obtain materials suitable for industrial wastewater treatment using organic dyes in production cycles. |
