Ionic liquid assisted hydrothermal synthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles: photocatalytic and antibacterial activity

Study on the Photocatalytic and Antibacterial Properties of TiO2 Nanoparticles-Coated Cotton Fabrics

“…Due to the electron mediator transports between cells and TiO 2 , OH radicals destroyed bacterial cells caused by reduction of coenzyme cell content [32]. Moreover, TiO 2 NPs are known to inactivate bacteria by binding to electron-donating groups and cause little pores in bacterial cell walls, leading to increased permeability and cell death [33]. In this research, amino-capped TiO 2 NPs have good photocatalytic activity and adsorption property attributed to their high UV absorption intensity (Figure 2), this can endow that amino-capped TiO 2 has good antibacterial properties under visible light.…”

Fabrication, functionalization and performance of doped photocatalysts for dye degradation and mineralization: a review

“…Indeed, a survey of the relevant literature will indicate that there has been a fast growing interest and successive examination of several ionic liquids as environmentally benign co-solvents or cosurfactants (Zhao et al 2017a;Bento et al 2020). Ionic liquids have been used in the preparation of various efficient and multifunctional materials endowed with tunable properties suiting a range of applications (Kang et al 2016;Sobhani et al 2017;Iannone et al 2017;Manjunath et al 2018;Nan et al 2018). It has been found that ionic liquids are especially apt in efficiently stabilizing NPs and then guarding them from agglomeration (Sharma et al 2017).…”

Physical, mechanical, and antibacterial characteristics of bio‐nanocomposite films loaded with Ag‐modified SiO2 and TiO2 nanoparticles

“…Besides, nano‐fillers can be regarded as carriers of active ingredients, such as bactericide and antioxidant substances in preserving the quality of food (Dehghan‐Manshadi, Peighambardoust, Azadmard‐Damirchi, & Niakousari, 2019, 2020). Currently, different NPs including Ag, nanoclays, ZnO, TiO 2 , SiO 2 , nanotubes of carbon, cellulose nano‐whiskers, and starch nanocrystals are used as nano‐fillers to improve the properties of packaging materials (Dehghani, Peighambardoust, Peighambardoust, Hosseini, & Regenstein, 2019; Manjunath et al., 2018; Nottagh, Hesari, Peighambardoust, Rezaei‐Mokarram, & Jafarizadeh‐Malmiri, 2018, 2019; S. H. Peighambardoust, Beigmohammadi, & Peighambardoust, 2016; Thangavel & Thiruvengadam, 2014; Yao et al., 2011). In previous studies, we investigated various properties of carboxymethyl cellulose cell (CMC)‐based (Ebrahimi, Peighambardoust, Peighambardoust, & Zahed‐Karkaj, 2019) and starch‐based (S. J. Peighambardoust, Peighambardoust, Pournasir, & Mohammadzadeh‐Pakdel, 2019) bio‐nanocomposites containing either individual or combination of silver (Ag), zinc oxide, and copper oxide particles.…”
