Biosynthesis and study of bimetallic copper and silver nanoparticles on cellulose cotton fabrics using Moringa oliefiera leaf extraction as reductant

In situ generation of antibacterial bimetallic silver and copper nanocomposites using Tinospora cordifolia leaf extract as bio reductant

“…The measured values of zone of inhibition are in comparison with other researcher's work [34]. Jaswanth et al, observed a similar behavior in case of BMNPs (Ag and Cu) synthesized by bioreduction method [11]. Hence, the NCFs with BMNPs possessing good mechanical and antibacterial activity and can be utilized in medical applications…”

“…A few researchers utilized plant species constituents for the in situ generation of MNPs such as copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) [7][8][9]. Recently, the bimetallic nanoparticles (BMNPs) were synthesized owing to their improved properties, variety of applications and synergy with a provision to change their molar ratio than individual monometallic nanoparticles (MNPs) [10,11]. BMNPs are showing more technological advantages than their individual counterpart MNPs due to improved properties in electronics, catalysis and optics [12,13].…”

Biological Chemicals as Sustainable Materials to Synthesize Metal and Metal Oxide Nanoparticles for Textile Surface Functionalization

“…The diffusion of NPs into fibers may require elevated temperatures and the small sizes of NPs. For large NP particles, a binder may be necessary to improve the interaction of NPs with the textile surfaces and the washing fastness of the functions on the fabrics. , Such principles can be observed in these successful treatments of AgNPs on textiles, including curing the treated nonwoven fabrics at 120 °C for 5 min, immersing fabrics in treatment solutions for 10 min, reducing the size of AgNPs by using cationized cotton fabrics and dilution of AgNPs, or the addition of a binder (print fix binder MTBEG liquid), starch, or butyl acrylate. , The improvements in washing durability of the treated fabrics were not very impressive, especially the antimicrobial performance after 20 washing cycles. ,, Despite the prominent biological properties of AgNPs, lack of reactivity with fiber surfaces and diffusivity into textiles are key issues, leading to unsatisfactory washing durabilities of the claimed functionalities …”

Study of Antimicrobial Potency of Synthesized Cellulose-Based Nanocomposite Films Incorporating Bi-Fe-Sn Trimetallic Microcrystalline Using Terminalia arjuna Leaf Extract for Packaging and Medicinal Applications

“…In such a case, the green method has caught the attention of many researchers for being inexpensive, nontoxic, and environmental-friendly. Many researchers have reported the synthesis of metal nanoparticles in polymer matrices, as well as cotton fabrics utilizing various leaf extracts as reducing agents [17], such as Aloe vera [19], Terminalia catappa [20], Cassia atta [21], Azadirachta indica [22], tamarind nut powder [23], red sanders powder [24], Pongamia pinnata [25], Moringa oliefera [26], and Tinospora cordifolia [27]. For the sake of improvement in the properties of individual metal nanoparticles, a systemic trial was recently conducted, such as the synthesis of bimetallic [28] and trimetallic [29] nanoparticles.…”
