Abstract
A simple green route of bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3) was prepared by a reaction an auto-combustion method with the addition of CTAB, PVA, and PEG surfactant. The microwave irradiation was operated by 900 W power under 2 min. The characterization of BiFeO3 and BiFeO3(CTAB/PVA/PEG) nanocomposites has been performed by the XRD, FT-IR, PL, VSM, DRS, FE-SEM, CV, EIS, and UV–Vis spectroscopy analysis, respectively. The XRD analysis was displayed that highly crystallization nanocomposites with rhombohedral structure is obtained magnetization with Ms = 0.68 emu g−1 that has been found in VSM measurement analysis. The electrochemical measurements of the synthesized nanocomposites displayed a good performance at 100 mV.s−1 scan rate. Also, the optical properties indicated that the bandgap of samples was around ~ 2 in the visible range. Moreover, the photocatalytic performances of the BiFeO3(CTAB/PVA/PEG) nanocomposites have illustrated the degradation of methyl orange (MO) as typical organic dye pollution under visible-light irradiation of 10 W white LED lamp. Moreover, the experimental results showed that the BiFeO3-CTAB nanocomposite has the highest degradation of MO dye pollution was in aqueous solution increased to 97%.
