An Efficient Photocatalytic Degradation of Methyl Blue Dye by using Synthesised PbO Nanoparticles

An Efficient Photocatalytic Degradation of Methyl Blue Dye by using Synthesised PbO Nanoparticles

We report here the synthesis of visible light sensitive PbO and Ni doped PbO nanoparticles by hydrothermal method and characterized by UV-DRS, photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL), FTIR, X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM, EDAX and TGA. Further an efficient approach has been developed for degradation of me...
