Catalytic Degradation of Phenol by γ-Fe₂O₃ Nanoparticles

Abstract:

In the present paper, the γ-Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized by the co-precipitation process and followed by calcination. The X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to characterize the as prepared nanoparticles. The results show that the phase structure of the nanoparticles is γ-Fe₂O₃ with the particle size ranging from 40 to 50 nm. The catalytic activity of the γ-Fe₂O₃ was investigated by decomposing the phenol in liquid phase. The results showed that γ-Fe₂O₃ has the highest catlytic activity.
