Abstract
Nanoscience and nanotechnology primarily deal with the synthesis characterization exploration and exploitation of nanostructural materials. Polymer nanocomposite materials have lately received great attention in both academia and industry. Small additions of inorganic usually surface-treated nanoparticles have a very positive effect on the electrical properties of insulating polymers. Biopolymers are polymers produced by living organisms in other words they are polymeric biopolymers. Cyclodextrins are a group of naturally occurring cyclic oligosaccharides, with six, seven, or eight glucose subunits linked by α-(1, 4) glycosidic bonds in a torus shaped structure and are denominated as α-, β-, and γ-CD respectively. In the present study, zincoxide/biopolymer nanocompositie was successfully fabricated by a simple and cost effective method. The possible nanomaterial zincoxide was successfully synthesized by simple precipitation technique and then effectivcly impregenated through the β-cyclodextrin matrix. The morphology of the synthesized nanocompositie was investigated using scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The crystalline nature of the nanocomposite was studied using an X-ray diffractometer. XRD analysis revealed the spherical shape allignment of zincoxide with hexagonal wurtzite structure. UV-Vis, FTIR spectral analysis and AFM studies where also performed for the synthesized nano compositie.
