in this paper, cubic nickel oxide nanoparticles were successfully prepared by solid-state thermal decomposition of nickel(ii) macrocyclic schiff-base complex at 450°c for 3 h without employing toxic solvent or surfactant and complicated equipment. nickel(ii) macrocyclic schiff-base complex was synthesized by the reaction of 1,2-bis(2-formyl-3-methoxyphenyl)propane, nicl2•6h2o and 1,3-phenylened...

The photocatalytic degradation of the commercial reactive Black5 (RB5), Blue19 (RB19), Green19 (RG19), Red120 (RR120), and Yellow81 (RY81) in aqueous solution and sunlight were examined in the presence of Fe2O3 and the mixture Fe2O3/H2O2 as catalysts. The results showed that the photocatalytic degradation followed first-order...
