A novel magnetic silica supported spinel ferrites NiFe2O4 catalyst for heterogeneous Fenton-like oxidation of rhodamine B

摘要

A series of spinel fe rrites magnetic nanopa rticles NiFe2 O4 we re synthesized as the heterogeneous Fentonlike catalyst by hydrothermal method and then NiFe2 O4@SiO2 catalysts were obtained by the modification of NiFe2 O4 via micro emulsion method.XRD,VSM,FTIR,SEM,TEM,BET and XPS were carried to analyze the difference between the above two catalysts.NiFe2 O4@SiO2 catalyst exhibited the higher catalytic activity than NiFe2 O4 for the degradation of Rhodamine B owe to the outer Si02 layers surface,the more important is both of them showed the better catalytic performance when at neutral pH environment.
