NOVEL SITU SYNTHESIS OF COPPER-BARIUM NANOPARTICLES SUPPORTED ON REDUCED GRAPHENE OXIDE AND ITS APPLICATION IN DYE DEGRADATION

Nanoparticles have expressed significant advances owing to wide range of application
in the field of bio-medical, sensors, antimicrobials, catalysts, electronic optical fibers,
agricultural, bio-labeling and in other areas. Synthesis and characterization of
nanoparticles is an important area of research as selection of size and shape of
nanoparticles provide an effect control over may of the physical and chemical
properties. In this article describe the preparation and characterization of bimetallic
alloy nanoparticles of graphene oxide supported mono metals like Cu, Ba, and a
bimetallic likes Cu/Ba nanoparticles catalyst were synthesized. The size and shape of
the products were characterized by various techniques such as: Field emission scanning
electron microscopy with edax (FESEM-EDAX) x-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD),
UV spectra analyses and antibacterial activities compared to mono metallic
nanoparticles against gram negative pseudomonas and gram-positive bacillus,
salmonella. Results proved that the newly developed graphene oxide supported
bimetallic nanoparticles catalysts can be more efficient to reductive, oxidative and of
environmentally important organic pollutant additionally it is also very good
biologically active compound
