Precursor Concentration-Induced Modulation of Structural and Surface Properties of Cobalt Ferrite for Enhanced Phenol Photodegradation Under UV–Vis Irradiation

Cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) photocatalysts were synthesized through a citric acid–ethylene glycol-assisted sol–gel route by systematically varying the Co2+ precursor concentration from 0.1 to 0.5 M. Precursor concentration significantly influenced the structural, optical, surface, a...
