In this work, we report the synthesis of bismuth molybdate (Bi2MoO6) nanostructure supported on the MCM-48mesoporoussilica in a highly dispersed state viaultrasound assisted process. The employed Bi2MoO6nanostructure was synthesized usingsolvent free reaction followed by calcination treatment. The prepared samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. XRD pattern and SEM images indicated the successful composition of flower-like Bi2MoO6nanostructure in the porous network silica material, which can be a good candidate for various applications.Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) technique was used to characterize the porosity and surface area of the prepared nanocomposite.
