Comparative Study of Chemically and Green Synthesized Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles using Leucas aspera Leaf Extract
J. Environ. Nanotechnol., Volume 12, No 3 (2023) pp. 10-13
Abstract
In this research work, the chemical synthesis and green synthesis of Titanium dioxide nanoparticles using Leucas aspera leaf extract were successfully carried out with titanium isopropoxide as the precursor. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles are widely used in various fields such as biomedical applications (antibacterial, antifungal, anticancer, etc.). For the Titanium dioxide nanoparticles thus synthesized using a low-cost and eco-friendly approach, the morphology, crystalline size, functional group and bandgap were confirmed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), X-ray Diffraction, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and UV Spectroscopy techniques and antibacterial applications were carried out by Disc diffusion method.
