Review on Green Synthesis of Metal Oxide Nanoparticles for Potential Applications | Chapter 4 | Research Aspects in Chemical and Materials Sciences Vol. 1

 The fundamental purpose of green synthesis is to decrease chemical waste when synthesising nanoparticles (NPs). Green technology is a way of creating high-potential NPs that may be utilised to overcome application limitations in a range of fields. Compared to chemical synthesis, it is more cost-effective. It is chemical-free, does not require sophisticated equipment, and is quite affordable. Chemical-reducing and capping chemicals are routinely used to make metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs), which restricts their biological potential. According to experts, green synthesis is an environmentally benign approach that enhances the unique physical and chemical properties of nanomaterials. We look at how to make metal oxide NPs in a green way and how they may be used in a variety of areas, including energy and the environment, aerospace, and medicine. This critique includes medicine, biotechnology, and other topics. The current paper covers a number of significant benefits of NP production using plant extracts. Because it uses low-cost, non-toxic components, the synthesis approach is both environmentally benign and cost-effective. Metal oxide NP size and shape control are critical techniques for a variety of applications.

Conducting Polymer/Metal Oxide Nanocomposite’s Morphology Dependence on MO Additive Weight Percent | Chapter 8 | Recent Trends in Chemical and Material Sciences Vol. 2

 Polyaniline Emeraldine salt (ES) and its composites with metal oxides V2O5, ZnO, and MgO were created utilising a chemical oxidation technique by combining various mass percents of metal oxides with monomer in a polymerization mixture using sulfuric acid as a dopant and APS as an oxidant. The morphological nano shape and nano size of these composites were investigated using SEM examination.

Engineered Nanoparticles in Environmental Mitigation and Green Growth | Chapter 2 | Recent Advances in Science and Technology Research Vol.4

 

The notion of green growth has emerged as a dominant policy response to climate change and

ecological breakdown. Environmental contamination is one of the important issues that the world is

facing today, it is always expanding and leading to the grave and harmful effect on the Earth.

Nanoparticles have a diameter less than 100 nm exhibit new size-dependent properties compared

with the bulk material. Engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) have unique characteristics in addition to the

high surface area-to-volume ratio, which may increase their toxicity relative to bulk materials. Due to

the high volume production of ENPs products such as carbon nanotubes, titanium dioxide, silver, zinc

oxide environmental exposure to these compounds is very common. ENPs have their unique

properties and applications in the areas of medicine, food & drink, construction, automotive, textiles,

energy, electronics, environment etc. To enable society to build and sustain a green economy, the

associated concept of “green nanotechnology” aims to exploit nano-innovations in materials science

and engineering to generate products and processes that are energy efficient as well as economically

and environmentally sustainable. The present book chapter is focused on the recent development of

the applications of ENPs in the environmental mitigation and green growth.
