Zusammenfassung:In this study, tulsi and neem oils were used to effectively synthesise Ag/Fe /TiO nanocomposite utilising environmentally friendly methods. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) methods were used to characterise the green synthesised nanocomposite. The triangle-spherical shaped nanoparticles (NPs) with an average size of 26–42 nm were shown by XRD and SEM investigations to be crystalline in Ag/Fe /TiO nanocomposite, respectively. Additionally, the dynamic light scattering histogram was used to quantify the size distribution of these NPs, and the results were consistent with those of the SEM picture, having an approximate element size of 28 nm. The Ag/Fe /TiO nanocomposite is reduced and stabilised as a result of functional groups present in acacia, and neem, and tulsi oils, as shown by FT-IR measurements. In a nutshell, this method offers a quick, affordable, and environmentally safe technique to create NPs without the use of potentially dangerous chemical agents.
