Abstract

Photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes in less-toxic products under visible light irradiation is considered a green method which is widely used in this field. In this manuscript, a novel coordination polymer (PUCP1) based hybrid-nanocomposite (PUCP1@rGO) was synthesized. The PUCP1 and nanocomposite were successfully characterized by using various analytical techniques such as SCXRD, FT–IR, PXRD, TGA, FE–SEM, BET and XPS. The PUCP1 exhibits a 2D framework with an uninodal 4-connected net and sql topology. The PUCP1@rGO was applied as a sensitive and selective photocatalyst for significant degradation of Safranin-O (SO) dye. The rGO played an important role in the expansion of photocatalytic activity of the PUCP1 by inhibiting the recombination probability of electron–hole pairs. The results revealed that PUCP1@rGO nanocomposite can degrade 76% of SO dye in only 90 min under visible light at a neutral pH. The PUCP1@rGO was found very sensitive to photocatalytic degradation of SO dye because a very small amount of catalyst (i.e. 10 mg) degrades the 5 μM concentration of SO dye in the presence of light. The PUCP1@rGO is a reusable photocatalyst for up to 5 cycles. Rarely, any sensitive photocatalyst for SO dye is reported in literature than PUCP1@rGO which degrades SO dye in a very small period with significant quantity. Thus, PUCP1@rGO can be used as a promising photocatalyst for the degradation of SO dye.

Graphical Abstract

In this work, we have synthesized a novel coordination polymer (PUCP1) and nanocomposite (PUCP1@rGO) by impreganation of rGO in PUCP1 framework.The PUCP1 exhibited selective photocatalytic response towards safranin-O dye under visible light irradiation and impregnation of rGO enhance the photocatalytic properties of PUCP1@rGO nanocomposite as compared to parent PUCP1.The PUCP1@rGO nanocomposite degrade the safranin-O dye up to 76% in 90 min only under visible light.
