Abstract

Nanostructured Materials have great scope in research due to their broad range of applications. Here in this study we have prepared copper doped magnesium ferrite (CuMgFe2O4)through Solution Combustion technique at very low temperature. The synthesized samples were analyzed by powder X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM). The flake like morphology of CuMgFe2O4 catalyst could be clearly identified from the SEM images. The efficiency of CuMgFe2O4 catalyst over Congo Red dye degradation under sunlight were studied and were found to be better than commercial photocatalyst. To further improve the degradation efficiency of the catalyst various parameters was optimized such as H2O2, pH and Catalyst weight. From our studies we confirm that the CuMgFe2O4 catalyst could be a promising material for practical application.
