Comparison of photocatalytic efficiency of ZnO nanoparticles prepared by green route and commercial ZnO nanoparticles
3rd International Conference on Nanotek & Expo
December 02-04, 2013 Hampton Inn Tropicana, Las Vegas, NV, USA
Laila M. Al-Harbi
Accepted Abstracts: J Nanomed Nanotechnol
Abstract:
Zinc oxide nanoparticles were synthesized in water at 180 0 C for two hours in microwave. ZnO nanoparticles was characterizes by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). The photocatalytic activity of ZnO nanoparticles prepared by green route has been investigated and compared with that of commercial ZnO. The photodegradation rate of methyl orange (MO) was determined for each experiment and the highest values were observed for ZnO nanoparticles obtained by green route suggestion that it absorbed large fraction of the solar energy as a result of its high surface area which is confirmed by SEM and surface area calculations
