Abstract
Mesoporous nickel oxide (MNO) was synthesized by sol–gel method with saponificated chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) as template and Ni (II) acetate as starting material. XRD, surface area, pore volume, pore diameter and pore size distribution of MNO were determined. It exhibited high surface area and uniform pores with very sharp pore size distribution centered at 3.6 nm. High resolution transmission electron microscope images confirmed the results. MNO showed a high activity toward degradation of phenol at low temperature under atmospheric pressure of oxygen.
