Green Synthesized Silver and Copper Nanoparticles Using Solanum trilobatum Root Extract and Comparative Study of Characterization

The green synthesis of silver and copper nanoparticles using Solanum trilobatum root extract as a capping representative. These studies changed into excited up at the synthesis of nanoparticles to offer paintings for two exclusive metals (silver nitrate and copper sulfate) with the aid of using the use of Solanum trilobatum root. We did a comparative study of synthesized silver and copper nanoparticles using about 10 g of Solanum trilobatum root was weighed separately and transferred into 250 mL beakers containing 100 mL distilled water and boiled for about 25 min solutions were then filtered to get clear extracts. The extract was taken for the reduction of Ag + and Cu 2+ ions, and 10 mL of Solanum trilobatum root extract was added drop wise to 10 mL of silver nitrate and copper sulfate solution (1 : 1 ratio). The UV-visible spectroscopy is a commonly used technique. Light wavelengths in the 300–800 nm are generally used for characterizing colorful essence nanoparticles in the size range of 2 to 100 nm. Spectrophotometric absorption measurements in the wavelength ranges of 400–450 and 500–550 nm are used in characterizing the silver and copper nanoparticles, respectively. FT-IR spectroscopy is useful for characterizing surface chemistry. Organic functional groups (carbonyls, hydroxyls) attached to the face of nanoparticles and the other face chemical remainders are detected using FT-IR. Scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscopy are used for morphological characterization at the nanometer to micrometer scale. Transmission electron microscopy has a 1000-fold higher resolution compared with scanning electron microscope.
