Popis: This study investigates the thermal decomposition of acetyl acetonates of Ni(II) and Fe(III) via a sonochemical process at 20 kHz for 50 min. In the absence of magnetic fields the reactions of Ni(II) and Fe(III) acetyl acetonates under ultrasonic treatment produce Ni(OH)2 and FeO(OH) nanoparticles coated with carbon. The synthesized materials with different Ni-Fe stoichiometries, Ni90-Fe10, Ni80-Fe20, and Ni50-Fe50 wt%, were subjected to catalytic activity for dye decolorization of Reactive Black 5 (RB5, 100 mg/L) at room temperature using visible radiation. The correlation between the structural and optoelectronic properties and the catalytic performance of the Ni-Fe system with different stoichiometries is reported.
