We observe the carboxyl functional groups in Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) after the oxygen plasma treatment. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies show that Ag nanoparticles have good agreement with BC and the particle size has a mean diameter of 20-40nm. Plasma treatment has improved the surface functional groups, crystalline intensity and antibacterial activity of the prepared nanocomposite. Silver ions (Ag+) will serve to improve the antibacterial activity as well as the surface area of BC. The produced BC/Ag nanocomposite was surface modified by air and oxygen plasma treatments. Karthikeyan, N.īamboo charcoal ( BC) accompanied silver (Ag) nanocomposite is synthesized through sol-gel method. Impact of Plasma Surface Treatment on Bamboo Charcoal/silver Nanocomposite The results show, bamboo charcoal produced by lab-prepared has similar qualities with the commercial bamboo charcoal. Furthermore, the bamboo charcoal that was produced commercially, by company, was also characterized and compared. Then the material was characterized for their dispersibility and adsorption behaviour. This paper report the production of bamboo charcoal using Gigantochloa Albociliata in controlled environment at 500 Â☌ for 1 hour (lab-prepared). ![]() ![]() ![]() The production must be carried out in properly control environment with precise temperatures and timing. However, these advantages really depend on the carbonization and activation process of bamboo charcoal. Some of the applications utilizing this material focused on these advantages such as water purification, electromagnetic wave absorber and blood purification. A.īamboo charcoal has attracted a lot of interests due to their microporous structure, high surface area and great adsorption properties.
