RESUMO
The application of nano materials for removal and detection of hazardous metal detection with nanoparticles is important for researcher. In this paper, the silver-manganese disulfide/chitosan-polyvinyl alcohol (Ag-MnS2/CSPVA) nanocomposites was prepared for the detection of toxic heavy metal. The synthesized nano materials was experimented through the various analysis methods to structural and morphological evaluation. The surface charge of the Ag-MnS2/CSPVA was -25.0 ± 0.1 mV. The various metal ions have not effect on detection of mercury (II). The result shows the excellent linearity was found the mercury concentrations changing with limit of detection of 9.0 nM (nano molar level). The condition of detection was conducted at pH 5 and room temperature. Moreover, the photocatalytic properties of the Ag-MnS2/CSPVA nanocomposites was analyzed for degradation of malachite green under visible light irradiation. The complete malachite green degradation reached up to 97.29% after 30 min of photocatalytic reaction. The antibacterial efficiency was studied versus both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. The outcome depicts that the Ag-MnS2/CSPVA nanocomposites has an excellent property in antibacterial activity.
