Background: Despite the diverse applications of ZnO and TiO2 nanoparticles, their cost of production and time-consuming factors will lead to upsurge in price of formulated cosmetics. However, there exists unambiguous ways to synthesize other metal oxide nanoparticles that display quite adept potential to be used as nanocosmetics.

摘要

Background: Despite the diverse applications of ZnO and TiO2 nanoparticles, their cost of production and time-consuming factors will lead to upsurge in price of formulated cosmetics. However, there exists unambiguous ways to synthesize other metal oxide nanoparticles that display quite adept potential to be used as nanocosmetics. Results: In this work, an attempt is made to synthesize MnO2 nanoparticles by exploiting chemical chameleon reaction under microwave ablation. Compared with other metal oxide nanoparticles, MnO2 NPs does not carry less potential for being a suitable candidate in cosmetic formulation. These particles possess good UV absorption potential as confirmed by UV-visible spectrophotometry and also exhibit antibacterial as well as mycocidal activity. Conclusion: The result may highlights cost-effective synthesis of nanoparticles that bear the potential to be an active ingredient in formulating a cosmetics owing to their excellent UV absorption potential as well as bacteriocidal and mycocidal latency.
