Summary: | Green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles is one of the most widely conducted
research nowadays due to its advantages, which are environmentally friendly and
simple. Green betel and red betel were chosen because of their abundance of
phytochemicals which are potential to be bioreductors and capping agents and their
abundant availability in Indonesia. In this study, experiments were carried out with
the aim of studying the role of green betel and red betel in green synthesis and the
characteristics of the zinc oxide nanoparticles they produced. This research method
included a literature review followed by experiments using green synthesis method.
The characterization carried out including UV-Vis Spectroscopy,
Photoluminescence Spectroscopy, Dynamic Light Scattering, X-Ray Diffraction,
Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, and antibacterial tests. The results
showed that both of red betel and green betel can be used as bioreductors and
capping agents. The increasing of extract concentrations showed escalation in
particle size homogenity which indicated that both green betel and red betel extracts
succeeded to be the capping agents in this experiments. ZnO semicrystallines were
obtained and exhibit hexagonal crystal system. |
