The highly crystalline ZnAl layered double hydroxides (ZnAl-NO3-LDHs) are utilized for the potential transformation into mixed metal oxides (MMOs) through thermal decomposition and used further for the photodegradation of phenol to assess the influence of calcination on ZnAl-LDHs with enhanced photoactivity. The structure, composition, and morphological evolution of ZnAl-LDHs to ZnO-based MMO nanocomposites, which are composed of ZnO and ZnAl2O4, after calcination at different temperatures (400–600 °C), are all thoroughly examined in this work. The final ZnO and ZnAl2O4-based nanocomposites showed enhanced photocatalytic activity. The findings demonstrated that calcining ZnAl-LDHs from 400 to 600 °C increased the specific surface area and also enhanced the interlayer spacing of d003 while the transformation of LDHs into ZnO/ZnAl2O4 nanocomposites through calcining the ZnAl-LDH precursor at 600 °C showed significant photocatalytic properties, leading to complete mineralization of phenol under UV irradiation. |
