Synthesis of cuprous oxide via ion exchange route for photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue
Cuprous oxide (Cu2O) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized using cupric hydroxide gel as a precursor and glucose as a reductant. A well-dispersed cupric hydroxide gel was prepared by treatment of aqueous cuprous chloride with anion exchange resin. The average diameter of the Cu2O nanoparticles...
