Synthesis and Characterization of Zirconium Doped Nickel Oxide Nanoparticles Using Acalypha indica L Extract and Its Antimicrobial Activities

Nanomaterials have had one of the dimensions in the range of 1-100 nm and it's had wide range of application in various fields. The materials produces by the processing in the greener route have more sustain nature. Based on this, the investigation focused on plants based green synthesis of Zr-doped Nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO Nps) using Acalypha indica Leaf extract for synthesis and its potential applications. The synthesized Zr doped NiO nanoparticles were characterized using Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD), and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and UV Visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). The optical absorption calculated and confirmed by UV Visible spectroscopy, the wavelength range is 260 nm. The FCC indexing with its crystalline structure confirmed by XRD. The band at 470 confirmed the presence of NiO using FTIR, Prepared Nano sized materials present in 85 nm ensured through SEM analysis. AFM analysis of the synthesized materials represents the topography Zr doped NiO NPs deliberates good antibacterial activity.
