New magnetic nanocomposites based on hexafrite and keggin-type -type heteropolyanions: Synthesized and characterized for removal of environmental pollutants.

This research paper details the creation of innovative nanocomposites using the sol-gel technique, incorporating polyoxometalates SiW9Ba3 to stabilize ceramic particles of strontium ferrite (SrFe12O19) polymer and Chitosan (CS). The identification and confirmation of the nanocomposites obtained at each stage were carried out through the use of FT-IR, EDX, XRD, and FESEM analyses. To evaluate their ability to remove organic dyes, we analyzed the catalytic activity of these nanocomposites during photocatalytic detoxification procedures. With its exceptional photocatalytic properties, the nanocomposite (SiW9Ba3@SrFe12O19@Cs) was able to remove estamipride poison at an impressive rate of 85 % and xylene dye solution at an even higher rate of 98 %. In addition, an extensive examination was undertaken to explore the primary variables that influence process efficiency. The study suggests that ceramic nanocomposites incorporating heteropolyoxometalate may offer a viable approach to effectively eradicate pollutants from the environment.
