Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized using Diospyros lotus fruit extract. Plant biomolecules were extracted through two solvents i.e. water and methanol. Effect of both solvents on the extraction process as well as effect of both extracts on the reduction of precursor salt to NPs has been studied and reported. Employing the synthesized Ag NPs as a component of nanocomposites, hydrogel membranes were prepared with starch and polyvinyl...
