Metal nanoparticles (MNPs) have gained significant attention due to their multifunctional properties and broad applications in various fields. In this study, we present a novel and sustainable approach for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using waste materials, dried banana pith extract (BPE) and rice water. The synthesised AgNPs exhibit a size of 43 nm and zeta potential of −24.1 mV. A maximum temperature rise of 4°C with an efficiency of 41% is achieved within a short time by the photothermal activity. The qualitative colorimetric detection of Fe3+ and its quantitative spectroscopic detection are achieved in a linear detection range of 20–80 μM and with a limit of detection of 8.5 μM. The sensing mechanism is explained in terms of cooperative binding of Fe3+ ions to BPE-AgNPs. A homogeneous, flexible and stable AgNP-rice starch gel is formed. The work offers environmentally conscious nanomaterials for diverse applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
