Abstract:

 The main focus of research is on the nature of applications in the fields of science and technology, particularly nanotechnology. In this paper, a simple, non-toxic, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly green method was used to synthesize TiO2 nanoparticles using the extraction of portulacaria afra plant leaves and TiCl4 as a precursor. The synthesized titanium dioxide nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffraction patterns, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis. The SEM image of TiO2 nanoparticles showed a few spherical, non-agglomerated particles. The average diameter of the nanoparticles, according to the surface topography of TiO2-NPs, is 70.24 nm. It was found that the average crystalline size was 18.9 nm by utilizing the Debye-Scherrer equation to calculate the size of the crystals. The vibrational mode of Ti-O-Ti exhibits a distinctive peak in the broad band centered at 578.64, 547.78, and 514.99 cm-1, which denotes the development of metal-oxygen bonding, confirming the presence of TiO2-NPs. The specific surface of the synthesized particles was calculated using the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller BET equation.
