The aim is to produce Ag and ZnO nanoparticles using Vitis vinifera extract and incorporate them into a polymer matrix for enhanced material characteristics.
Used Vitis vinifera extract for the green synthesis of Ag and ZnO nanoparticles.
Characterized nanoparticles using FTIR, X-ray diffraction, and Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS).
Prepared nanocomposites with varying concentrations of nanoparticles in high impact polystyrene.
Ag nanoparticles had an average size of 179 nm, while ZnO nanoparticles were 324 nm.
Nanocomposites showed improved impact resistance properties and elastic modulus.
No significant changes were observed in melt flow index (MFI) and glass transition after composite preparation.
