- Abstract
Magnetic ZnFe2O4@CuS core-shell nanostructures have been prepared by a facial polyol route. The catalytic activity of the ZnFe2O4@CuS-NaBH4 system for reduction of nitro – compound in water-ethanol solution (2:1 V/V), showed that the reaction proceeds within 3 min at 60°C. A dye adsorption property of the nanostructure was also investigated with the aid of response surface methodology. Results indicate that the adsorption process is fast as equilibrium obtained within 10 min and adsorption followed the Freundlich model with a maximum capacity of 26 mg g–1. Regeneration study showed that adsorbed methylene blue released with methanol-acetone solution.
