Abstract

Silver nanoparticles have been increasingly used in industrial applications for a long time. Chemical methods of synthesizing silver nanoparticles can be toxic and expensive. Therefore, many studies have emerged to create ecologically correct synthetic routes that provide good dispersion and stability in the extractive medium. Plant species are investigated for the discovery of a new dispersive medium for silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) synthesized by the green route. AgNPs are disperse in plant extract, by plants available in Brazil. In this work, Melissa Officinalis leaves were used as a dispersive medium of nanoparticles. The characterization techniques used became possible to observe the superficial modifications with the presence of well-dispersed nanostructures, which are fundamental for the production of intelligent textiles with antimicrobial action. Thus, it was possible by means of each synthesis route to evaluate the dispersion and morphology of AgNPs in different dispersive media of Melissa Officinalis, concluding that it is very efficient for the stabilization of AgNPs.
