description | In the present investigation, with an effort to provide appropriate material for future applications, we have touched on two viable advancement targets: the production of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) employing an ultrasonic approach and the use of Ag-NPs in environmental remediation. A green economical method was involved to prepare Ag-NPs using butyl acrylate as a stabilizer. The following techniques were used for analysing Ag-NPs: energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transformed infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis for the lattice characteristics showed that Ag-NPs have a face-centered structure with an average crystallite size of 9.51–11.83 nm. FE-SEM and TEM analysis were used for morphological investigations, and revealed that Ag-NPs had a spherical shape with an average particle size of 16.27 nm. The EDX profile displayed a strong signal at ∼3.0 keV, which indicated that the samples comprised silver. UV–Visible spectrophotometer with the absorption maximum occurring between 401 and 411 nm further confirmed the formation of Ag-NPs. The dye degradation effect of synthesized Ag-NPs on methylene blue and Rhodamine B was analyzed to assess their ability for environmental remediation, and results showed that around 100% of the dye degradation effect. This study has provided a most plausible mechanism for the dye degradation. |
