Novel diatom-FeOx composite as highly active catalyst in photodegradation of Rhodamine-6G
We report the study of nanoporous silica-iron oxide composite generated from diatom frustules as a highly active catalyst for the photodegradation of the dye Rhodamine-6G. The unique architecture and high surface area of diatoms were utilized to immobilize iron oxide on their surface to form the com...
