Abstract

The aim of this study is to analyze the photocatalytic dye degradation efficiency of FeNiS2 with EDTA and Leishman stain thin films prepared using a sol-gel technique. The results of surface morphology and elemental composition, optical characterization of these films obtained using various characterization techniques such as SEM, EDX, UV-VIS spectroscopy. The photocatalytic studies show that the addition of EDTA and Leishman extraordinarily enhances the photocatalytic efficiency of FeNiS2. The FeNiS2 with EDTA, FeNiS2 with Leishman stain thin films causes 92%, 90% and 89% decomposition of methylene blue, malachite green and crystal violet dye molecules, respectively.
