Effect of calcinating temperature on Antimicrobial properties of ZnO/Ag/ graphene nanocomposite

In this work, ZnO/Ag/ graphene nanocomposite were successfully synthesized using sol-gel process in different calcination temperature and characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. These nanocomposites can be applied as the effective antibacterial for architectural paints . The antibacterial activity was evaluated by inhibition zone test for Escherichia coli . Based on the presented results it can be stated that these materials are very effective biocides and The small crystal size and large surface area of the heterostructure nanoparticles contribute to antibacterial enhancement.
