Degradation of malachite green by Sm2O3 microspheres synthesized by the coprecipitation method

This work reports the synthesis of samarium oxide (Sm2O3) microspheres and their effectiveness in degrading malachite green (MG) dye, both in the dark and under UV light. Single-phase cubic Sm2O3 (C-type) was prepared by a direct coprecipitation method, followed by calcination at...
