Abstract

In this work we focus on the synthesis of AgTiO2 nanoparticles using Citrus limon extract as a reducing agent. AgTiO2 nanoparticles can be used for biomedical applications and various environmental remediation fields as a good visible light-active photocatalyst. The prepared AgTiO2 nanoparticles have been analyzed for their properties by using various characterizations, such as UV-Vis, FT-IR, TEM, XRD, and particle size analyzer, to determine their nanoparticle behavior. The UV-active property of TiO2 has been shifted to visible-active from the substitute Ag on the surface of pristine TiO2 crystals. AgTiO2 nanoparticles have a high surface area, good visible light active property, high crystalline nature, and bioactive compounds, and it will act as good visible active photocatalysts for various environmental applications.
