Facile Electrosynthesis of Fe3O4 Nanoparticles Mediated with Sodium Alginate for Paracetamol Degradation

High purity of Fe3O4 was prepared by electrochemical method in different concentration of sodium alginate (SA) as natural capping agent. The content of SA influenced the particle size and surface interaction to Fe3O4 as confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spect...

Description
Summary:High purity of Fe3O4 was prepared by electrochemical method in different concentration of sodium alginate (SA) as natural capping agent. The content of SA influenced the particle size and surface interaction to Fe3O4 as confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The highest photocatalytic activity was obtained for Fe3O4 synthesized with 0.05% SA with initial concentration of 15 mg/L Paracetamol. This result contributed to electrochemical advancement to produce Fe3O4 with simple method.
