2024-06-18T11:51:03Z urn:hdl:10256/18816 Effects of the Addition of Fe, Co on the Azo Dye Degradation Ability of Mn-Al Mechanically Alloyed Powders Ben Mbarek, Wael Saurina Canals, Joan Escoda i Acero, Ma. Lluïsa Pineda, Eloi Khitouni, Mohamed Suñol Martínez, Joan Josep Aliatge mecànic Mechanical alloying Espectrofotometria Spectrophotometry Azo compounds are used in the textile and leather industry. A significant step during the azo dyes treatment of water is the degradation by breaking the N=N bonds. This break produces the decolorization of water. In this research work, 10% atomic of Fe or Co was added to produce ternary Mn-Al-rich, nanostructured, mechanically alloyed powders in order to improve the decolorization of Reactive Black 5 solutions and to check Fe and Co addition’s influence. The microstructure was followed by X-ray diffraction, the morphology and composition by electronic microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) microanalysis. The dye degradation was monitored with ultraviolet/visible absorption spectrophotometry. After degradation, the remaining organic compound was checked by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the functional groups of the powdered alloys by infrared spectroscopy. Fe addition to Mn-Al displayed faster kinetics and a higher efficiency than the Co addition. The Mn-Al-Fe solution (0.25 g/100 mL) was fully decolorized in 5 min. On the other side, Mn-Al-Co powders were able to successfully decolorize the dyed solution in 10 min under the same conditions. Thus, nanocrystalline Fe-doped Mn-Al alloys are good candidates for use in the decolorization process, in comparison with Co-doped and other intermetallic particles Work funded by Spanish MINECO Grant No. FIS2017-82625-P, Catalan GenCat Grant No. 2017SGR0042 and University of Girona UNIGE-2-2019 project is also acknowledged 2024-06-18T11:51:03Z 2024-06-18T11:51:03Z 2020-11-25 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion peer-reviewed http://hdl.handle.net/10256/18816 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.3390/met10121578 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/eissn/2075-4701 Attribution 4.0 International http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess MDPI (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute) Metals, 2020, vol. 10, núm. 12, p. 1578 Articles publicats (D-F)
