Abstract
Ni2FeV3O11 nanorods were prepared by the sol-gel method via film-coating and subsequent heating. The sample was conducted by the crystal structure refinement confirming a pure triclinic phase with space group P-1. The surface characteristics were investigated by the measurements such as scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), specific surface area, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The photo-physical properties of Ni2FeV3O11 nanorods were measured by the UV-vis absorption spectrum, and the photodegradation for methylene blue solutions (MB). This vanadate semiconductor has band-gap energy of 1.85 eV and presents an efficient photocatalytic activity driven by visible-light. Moreover, the nanorods are magnetically recoverable after the photocatalysis. © 2015 Published by Elsevier B.V.
