- Description
- Zinc octacarboxy phthalocyanine (ZnOCPc) was covalently immobilized on the surface of magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) for the photocatalytic degradation of Orange G (OG) under visible light irradiation. It is noteworthy that the catalyst can be easily recovered using an external magnet and that it is reusable. The ZnOCPc remained bound to the MNP surface even after 25 min of photolysis as confirmed by the FT-IR and X-ray diffraction spectra. Kinetic analysis shows that the photodegradation rates of OG can be approximated to be pseudo-first order, according to the Langmuir–Hinshelwood kinetics model.
