摘要

The present study effectively generated manganese dioxide nanoparticles through the use of both chemical and green synthesis methods. In the green synthesis, Musa acuminata flower extract was used as a reducing and stabilizing agent. The synthesised nanoparticles were examined using XRD, SEM, FT-IR, UV–visible spectroscopy, and EDAX techniques. The photocatalytic efficiency of green and chemically prepared MnO2 NPs were examined in this specific study. It takes work to lower the toxicity of MnO2 NPs in an environmentally responsible way when they are produced. The photocatalytic efficiency of several simple oxides of transition metals have also been examined by a study of their band gap energies when exposed to the dye Methylene blue (MB), which is a prominent water pollutant produced by the textile industry. The dye used in all of the photocatalytic studies was Methylene blue (MB).
