Abstract

A new synthesis of a CoFe2O4–ZnS magnetic nanocomposite has been achieved and used as an efficient photocatalyst in the degradation of methyl orange in water under UV irradiation. The photocatalyst is magnetically recoverable from the reaction medium and suitable for multiple uses with sustained catalytic activity.
