The present research was mainly focused on an effective method for the synthesis of Manganese dioxide /Graphene oxide/multiwalled carbon nano tubenanocomposite (MnO2/GO/MWCNT). The nanocomposite (MnO2/GO/MWCNT) was characterized using X-ray Diffracto meter (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectra. The morphology of the Nanocomposite (MnO2/GO/MWCNT) revealed that the MnO2 with a nanometer size were uniformly and compactly deposited on GO/MWCNT. The nanocomposite displayed synergistic effect on degradation of Methyl Red (MR) and Malachite Green (MG) from aqueous solution under UV light sources.
