Abstract

Abstract: The AC@CuO-NWs nanocomposite was synthesized and examined using various spectroscopic methods. The XRD results established with the monoclinic structure, average crystalline size ∼ 17.48 nm of CuO-NWs. This material FE-SEM image established the wire shaped and EDX examination approves the CuO nanomaterial. The FE-SEM image demonstrated that nanowires are agglomerated to each other and formed flower form on composite. The adsorption and photocatalytic degradation studies were examined under natural sunlight irradiation in contrast to the Methylene blue dye.
