A novel three-dimensional hierarchical CuAl layered double hydroxide with excellent catalytic activity for degradation of methyl orange

Abstract

In this study, heterogeneous Fenton-like degradation of the reactive organic dye methyl orange in water was investigated over CuAl–Layered Double Hydroxide (CuAl–LDH) with high copper ions content as a base catalyst prepared by a hydrothermal synthesis.
