Synthesis, structural characterization and catalytic application of citrate-stabilized monometallic and bimetallic palladium@copper nanoparticles in microbial anti-activities.

ABSTRACT: In this research work, copper (Cu), palladium (Pd) and their bimetallic palladium@ copper (Pd@Cu) nanoparticles were synthesized using trisodium citrate as a stabilizing agent using the known chemical reduction method. The synthesized Cu, Pd and Pd@Cu nanoparticles were characterized by the ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, respectively. The different volumes of trisodium citrate were used for the stability of synthesized monometallic Cu, Pd and bimetallic Pd@Cu nanoparticles. The synthesized Cu, Pd and their bimetallic Pd@Cu nanoparticles were used as catalysts for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol in the presence of NaBH4. The bimetallic Pd@Cu nanoparticles had efficient catalytic activities with a high rate constant (1.812 min-1) as compared to monometallic Cu (0.3322 min-1) and Pd (0.2689 min-1) nanoparticles, respectively. The correlation coefficient (R2) was found to be 0.99 for these three nanoparticles. Meanwhile, the effect of Cu, Pd and bimetallic Pd@Cu nanoparticles was checked on the physiology of specific different micro-organism strains. The bimetallic Pd@Cu nanoparticles reported the maximum resistance at maximum level the growth of bacterial strain and had observed a smooth antibacterial graph than the monometallic analogs.

Project description:This work reports the fast and effective bio-fabrication of novel platinum-palladium bimetallic nanoparticles (Pt-Pd BNPs) along with their counterparts Pt and Pd monometallic NPs (MNPs) through aqueous Annona muricata leaf extract. The bio-fabrication of the NPs was achieved within 2 h at 100 °C and pH 7 which was established by the occurrence of dark brown color for Pt MNPs and black color for Pd MNPs and Pt-Pd BNPs. NPs were evaluated for their catalytic activity in the reduction of methyl orange (MO), rhodamine-B (rh-B), and methylene blue (MB) textile dyes in presence of sodium borohydride as a reducing agent. Pt-Pd (1:3) BNPs showed higher MO dye degradation (96.84 ± 2.05% in 50 min) followed by Pd MNPs (97.07 ± 1.46% in 60 min), Pt-Pd (3:1) BNPs (97.34 ± 1.17% in 70 min) and Pt-Pd (1:1) BNPs (98.12 ± 1.04% in 80 min). Pd MNPs showed significant catalytic activity in the reduction of rh-B dye by 97.27 ± 1.14% in 12 min followed by Pt-Pd (3:1) BNPs (96.76 ± 2.17% in 18 min), Pt-Pd (1:3) BNPs (96.53 ± 1.97% in 33 min) and Pt-Pd (1:1) BNPs (97.11 ± 2.09% in 39 min). Pt-Pd (1:3) BNPs also showed higher MB dye degradation (96.95 ± 1.57% in 40 min) followed by Pd MNPs (96.22 ± 2.36% in 55 min), Pt-Pd (3:1) BNPs (97.29 ± 1.22% in 75 min) and Pt-Pd (1:1) BNPs (96.45 ± 2.19% in 105 min). However, Pt MNPs showed no catalytic activity. Standard disc diffusion method was used to evaluate the NPs toxicity towards Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, which showed no inhibitory zones. NPs showed less toxicity compared to potassium dichromate (control) against Artemia nauplii. Among the NPs studied, Pt-Pd (1:1) BNPs showed less toxicity with 100% mortality only at 100 µg/mL concentration followed by Pt MNPs (≥ 80 µg/mL), Pt-Pd (1:3) BNPs (≥ 60 µg/mL), Pt-Pd (3:1) BNPs (≥ 60 µg/mL) and Pd MNPs (≥ 40 µg/mL) after 72 h exposure. These evaluations support the application of bio-fabricated Pt-Pd BNPs as nano-catalysts in textile dyes degradation.Supplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13205-021-02935-0.
