What is Pectin Based Banana Peel Extract as a Stabilizing Agent in Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Synthesis about?
Various amounts of banana peel extract were successfully used as a stabilizing agent in the co-precipitation of zinc oxide nanoparticles. The obtained materials were characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDS), N physisorption, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and quadrupole mass spectroscopy (QMS). On account of using such a broad spectrum of analytic methods, a thorough description of the interactions between the organic ingredients of the extract and ZnO particles was presented. It was indicated that the banana peel extract is based on pectin. These carbohydrate macromolecules adsorb on ZnO surface due to presence of active carboxylic groups. By increasing the concentration of polysaccharides, pectin-pectin interactions were also observed. The amount of the extract used for the synthesis significantly influenced the crystalline structure of zinc oxide particles along with their size and morphology. The shape and size were varying from thin flakes (450 × 24 nm) when the small
