One-pot synthesis and characterization of biopolymer – Iron Oxide nanocomposite

The magnetite (Fe3O4) – agar nanocomposite was prepared by co-precipitation of Fe (III) and Fe (II) ions for the first time. The obtained samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. FT-IR results confirm the formation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles in agar matrix. The XRD results revealed the […]

Synthesis and characterization of zinc oxide – agar nanocomposite

A novel zinc oxide – agar nanocomposite was successfully synthesized using zinc chloride as a precursor. The nanocomposite was prepared using a domestic microwave oven. The prepared nanocomposites have been characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and UV- visible spectroscopy. The crystalline properties of the synthesized […]
