A study on synthesis, characterization and catalytic applications of MoO3-ZnO nanocompositematerial

MoO3-ZnO Nanocompositematerial were prepared by co-precipitation method. The characterization and application of HR-SEM pictures revealed the nanospherical structure, while EDX analysis revealed that Mo, Zn, and O were conformed in this material. The HR-TEM pictures revealed a spherical chain structure with a particle size of 200 nm on average. The prepared MoO3-ZnO is PL low emission presents high photocatacatalytic activity that of ZnO. DRS analysis of ZnO and MoO3-ZnO nanocomposite material are 3.35 eV and 3.0 eV respectively, MoO3-ZnO nanocomposite material degrease band gab energy high photocatalytic and high electrochemical activity. The high photocatalytic application of MoO3-ZnO nanocomposite material on RhB dye 85% of that of ZnO nano powder ZnO (39 %) and Prepared ZnO (50 %).dye. The results show that the MoO3-ZnO nanocomposite material has a greater electrical conductivity that of ZnO by DSSCs and photoconductivity study. The MoO3-ZnO nanocomposite material is employed as a catalyst in the synthesis of Schiff base derivatives. The results demonstrated that the nanocatalyst is extremely stable and can be reused for more than five cycles of reaction
