Two iron-based nanomaterials (IONs-1 and IONs-2) were synthesized from zero-valent iron nanoparticles (IONs-0) using different methods, showing distinct phases and morphology, with high specific surface areas. Both materials exhibited efficient removal of Direct Red 80 dye, achieving close to 100% removal rate.
In this work, iron-based nanomaterials (IONs-1 and IONs-2) were synthesized from zero-valent iron nanoparticles (IONs-0) and characterized. IONs-1 were synthesized from IONs-0 by hydrogen peroxide treatment, followed by calcination at 350 degrees C. IONs-2 were synthesized from IONs-0 by sequential treatment with hydrogen peroxide and sodium hydroxide, respectively. IONs-1 presented the following phases: superparamagnetic Fe3+ (7%), alpha-Fe2O3 (17%), and gamma-Fe2O3 (76%). IONs-2 presented the following phases: superparamagnetic Fe3+ (5%), gamma-Fe2O3 (51%) and Fe3S4 (54%). Through microscopy images, it was possible to verify that the IONs-1 and IONs-2 exhibit, respectively, nanorod and well-defined nanosheets formats. The specific surface areas of IONs-1 and IONs-2 were 85.37 and 223.84 m(2) g(-1), respectively. IONs-1 and IONs-2 were used to remove Direct Red 80 dye, resulting in about 100% removal.
