Improved Photocatalytic Performance of Fe3O4/TiO2 Thin Film in the Degradation of MB Dye Under Sunlight Radiation

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In the present work, we have prepared Fe3O4/TiO2 thin film on the FTO plate by the hydrothermal method in a two-step process, primarily coated TiO2 and followed Fe3O4 on TiO2. The prepared thin film was characterized for structural, functional, optical, and morphological properties employing powder-XRD, FT-IR, UV-Visible, and FE-SEM respectively. XRD and FE-SEM analysis confirmed the distribution of Fe3O4 on TiO2. FTIR affirmed the firm interfacial contact of Fe3O4 on TiO2 resulting optical band gap to be 2.2 eV. MB dye degradation studies under direct sunlight radiation showed 78% and 84% in 4 h for TiO2 and Fe3O4/TiO2 respectively. The reusability of the catalyst showed 82% after three cycles of studies, which affirms the stability of the thin film. Hence, Fe3O4/TiO2 thin film coated on the FTO plate could be a promising catalyst for the degradation of MB dye in real time application.
