Preparation of BSA-ZnWO4 Nanocomposites with Enhanced Adsorptional Photocatalytic Activity for Methylene Blue Degradation

This study explains the effect of adsorption on dye degradation using bovine serum alum and ZnWO4 based nanocomposite (BSA-ZnWO4). The synthesis of BSA-ZnWO4 was performed by a hydrothermal method involving the encapsulation of ZnWO4 with BSA. BSA-ZnWO4 was characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD, FTIR, and...
