The present study reports the successful synthesis of nickel oxide nanoparticles using Vernonia amygdalina plant leaf extracts as a chelating agent and nickel (II) chloride hexahydrate (NiCl2•6H2O) as precursor. The synthesized powder was gray black in color and annealed at 500 °C for 2 hours to obtain nickel oxide nanoparticles. Characterization techniques such as powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to study the structure and morphology of the nanoparticles. Powder X-ray diffraction patterns revealed that nickel oxide nanoparticles with an average crystallite size of 17.86nm were synthesized. Scanning electron microscope images show that the nanoparticles have octahedral structure. Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer analysis revealed that the strongest bond at 1094.8cm-1 corresponds to stretching vibration mode of Ni-O nanoparticles.

There is a growing interest in new type of biocidal compounds with antibacterial properties against bacteria. In this study, new antibacterial synthetic materials bearing curcumin and cationic polymers were synthesized. In the synthesis stage, the methacrylate functional cationic monomer was synthesized via the Michael addition route by using 3-acryloxy-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate and 3-amino pyridine to obtain Monomer 1. Monomer 1 was further quaternized with hexyl bromide to obtain a cationic methacrylate functional monomer. Free-radical polymerization of Monomer 1 and methyl acrylate was conducted in the presence of azobisisobutyronitrile under dimethylformamide solvent. The composite formulation was conducted by using turmeric extract Curcuma longa (curcumin), hydroxyapatite, montmorillonite, and silver nitrate. The materials were analyzed by using the methods of X-ray diffraction, nuclear magnetic resonance, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. The biocidal activities against the bacteria Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus aureus were analyzed using agar well diffusion method. From the Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy analysis results of the synthesized nanocomposites, it is seen that they form strong connections with the components added to the composites and form an exfoliated structure. According to the antibacterial analysis results, the nanocomposites obtained have showed a strong antibacterial resistance against E.coli, L.monocytogenes, Salmonella, and S. aureus bacteria, and the high inhibition zone areas were obtained.

Brewing spent diatomite (BSDT), a beer industrial by-product, was regenerated with calcination. The characteristics of regenerated BSDT were detected by X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, Fourier-transform infrared, and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the mineralization of the surface adsorbate and the remarkable increase in the Si-OH decreased the pHpzc value from 7.6 to 5.2 and increased the surface area from 36 m2/g to 52 m2/g after calcination at 800 °C. The results show that the regenerated BSTD could be employed as an efficient adsorbent for the recycling of BSDT.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari kopolimerisasi cangkok akrilonitril pada selulosa bakteri (SB) dengan inisiasi radiasi serta penambahan hidroksilamin untuk menghasilkan gugus amidoksim. Pencangkokan akrilonitril pada SB diharapkan dapat meningkatkan ketahanan termal SB. Sedangkan SB yang bersifat sebagai pengkelat ion-ion logam berat, diharapkan dapat dihasilkan melalui penambahan hidroksilamin. Film selulosa bakteri telah berhasil dibuat dari air kelapa yang diinokulasi dengan bakteri Acetobacter xylinum. Film selulosa bakteri (SB) selanjutnya diiradiasi dengan berkas elektron pada rentang dosis 15-120 kGy, laju dosis 15 kGy/pass pada suhu 30 + 1 0C. Setelah diiradiasi, SB tersebut dikopolimerisasi cangkok dengan monomer akrilonitril. Kondisi optimum untuk kopolimerisasi cangkok akrilonitril pada SB adalah pada dosis 75 kGy, suhu 600C, waktu 3 jam, dan konsentrasi akrilonitril 30% b/b. Derajat pencangkokan tertinggi yang diperoleh adalah 56,03 %. Selulosa bakteri tercangkok akrilonitril (SB tercangkok PAN) selanjutnya diamidoksimasi. Amidoksimasi dilakukan dengan penambahan hidroksilamin hidroklorida 6 % b/v dalam pelarut metanol:air = 50:50 v/v pada pH 7, dan diperoleh waktu optimum selama 2 jam dengan densitas gugus amidoksim sebesar 5,425 mmol/ g. Hasil karakterisasi dengan Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) menunjukkan adanya spektrum spesifik gugus siano setelah proses pencangkokan akrilonitril pada SB dan intensitasnya menurun setelah diamidoksimasi. Hal tersebut diperkuat dengan hasil uji Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) yang memperlihatkan adanya gugus siano yang menempel setelah pencangkokan, dan gugus tersebut tidak terlihat lagi setelah amidoksimasi. Dari hasil uji dengan X-ray Diffraction (XRD), indeks kristalinitas SB tercangkok PAN akan semakin rendah dengan meningkatnya derajat pencangkokan dan pengujian dengan Thermal Gravimetry Analysis (TGA) menunjukkan bahwa ketahanan panas SB tercangkok PAN meningkat.

In this work, zinc oxide nanostructures were synthesized from thymus schimperi leaves extract and ZnSO4.7H2O precursor, and antibacterial and photocatalytic activities were studied. The as-synthesized nanostructures were characterized by UV-Vis spectrophotometer, powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer and scanning electron microscopy. Powder X-ray diffraction patterns revealed that the as-synthesized zinc oxide was hexagonal wurtzite structure with no peaks from other phases or impurity. The maximum UV-Vis spectrum peak at about 255 nm also supports the evidence for the formation of zinc oxide nanostructures. The presence of functional groups on the surface of the nanostructures from the Fourier transform infrared spectrum exhibited that the phytochemicals play a key role in the formation of the nanostructures. The appearance of peak at 595cm-1 in the spectrum further corroborates the presence of zinc oxide in the sample. Scanning electron micrographs depict that there was mesh like nanostructures on the surface, which are likely to be convenient for catalytic application. The synthesized nanostructures inhibited the growth of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, showing its biocidal property. Moreover, Congo red, which is one of the carcinogenic textile dyes, has been photodegraded by 83.33% at a pH of 6.5 due to the as-synthesized zinc oxide nanostructures indicating its potential application for waste water treatment.

Polycrystalline cadmium hydroxide nanomaterials have successfully been synthesized by composite-hydroxide-mediated approach with growth time variation. The influence of growth time on structural, morphological, elemental, and optical properties was explored using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction results revealed the hexagonal and monoclinic phases of cadmium hydroxide along with rhombohedral impurity phase of cadmium carbonate. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy further endorsed the X-ray diffraction results and confirmed the Cd–O bonding vibrations. Time-dependent uniform distribution of spherical morphology was observed in the scanning electron micrographs of the product. The presence of cadmium and oxygen in the energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy results fingerprinted the purity and formation of the desired nanomaterials. Crystallite size was decreased with the increase of growth time as estimated by the Debye–Scherrer method. Furthermore, the optical bandgap was measured by Tauc’s relation using ultraviolet–visible absorption spectra and found to be in the range of 3.2–3.5 eV.
