Observational analysis shows enhanced photocatalytic and antioxidant properties in Na/K doped cobalt ferrite nanoparticles, indicating their potential for environmental applications.
Key Points
K-doped cobalt ferrite nanoparticles demonstrated greater photocatalytic and antioxidant activities than Na-doped counterparts.
Characterization methods revealed Na-doped cobalt ferrite crystallite sizes between 25 to 26 nm, while K-doped sizes were between 15 to 16 nm.
Absorption region analysis indicated a band gap energy of 1 to 1.41 eV for K-doped cobalt ferrite, suggesting improved efficiency.
The findings highlight the importance of doping in tailoring nanoparticle properties for advanced applications.
