Catalytic degradation of Acid Orange 7 (AO7) by hydrogen peroxide in an aqueous solution has been investigated using cobalt(II) complex of 5, 10, 15, 20 Tetrakis [4-(hydroxy)phenyl] porphyrin [Co(II) TPHPP] covalently supported chitosan/Graphene Oxide nanocomposite [Co(II) TPHPP]-Cs/GO, as highly efficient and recoverable heterogeneous catalyst. The structures and properties of [Co(II) TPHPP]-Cs/GO nanocomposite were characterized by techniques such as UV-Vis, FT-IR, SEM, EDX, TEM, and XRD. The oxidation reaction was followed by recording the UV-Vis spectra of the reaction mixture with time at λ = 485 nm.

The synthesized GO-nanocomposites were recognized by several techniques. Vanillin (Van.

The presence of CS led to the formation of the nanohybrid structure and prevented the aggregation of the copolymer efficiently. The synthesized nanohybrids were fully characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis.
