The synthesis of the FeO-CuO-CuFeO nanocomposite was effectively achieved through the sol-gel technique, utilizing ethanol as a reactive fuel. Investigation of the nanocomposite's structure via X-ray Diffraction confirmed the coexistence of FeO, CuO, and CuFeO phases within the material. The Scherrer equation was applied to determine an average crystallite size ranging from 60 to 95 nm.

In this paper, tri-phase FeO-MgO-CuO nanocomposites (NCs) and pure CuO, FeO and MgO nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared using sol-gel technique. The physical properties of the prepared products were examined using SEM, XRD, and UV-visible. The XRD data indicated the formation of pure CuO, FeO and MgO NPs, as well as nanocomposite formation with FeO (cubic), MgO (cubic), and CuO (monoclinic).

Article Synopsis
  • MgO-BiCrO nanocomposites with compositions x = 0 and 0.07 were created using a solvent-deficient method and analyzed using techniques like X-ray diffraction and UV-Vis spectroscopy.
  • The non-doped sample exhibited a monoclinic crystalline structure without MgO peaks, while the Cr-doped sample showed a smaller crystallite size and two distinct energy gaps in its optical properties.
  • Antibacterial tests revealed that Cr-doping reduced the effectiveness of the MgO-BiCrO nanocomposites against various bacteria, including Salmonella and Staphylococcus.
