Abstract

In this era, most technology requires electronic equipment. The performance of electronic equipment may be affected by energy storage components like a supercapacitor, so the development of supercapacitor electrode materials using green chemical methods needs to be pursued. Material with a good specific capacitance is MnO2. Most of the MnO2 synthesis methods are not based on green chemistry, so there is an alternative method. One of them is by utilizing the waste from tangerine peels. This study aimed to synthesize MnO2 through dehydroxylation of tangerine peel essential oil. The steps for conducting this research consisted of isolation of tangerine peel essential oil, analysis of the constituent components of tangerine peel essential oil, synthesis of MnO2 through dehydroxylation of essential oils tangerine peel, and MnO2 characterization. XRD results showed that MnO2 synthesized at pH 11 had the highest percentage of α-MnO2 (97%). This is evidenced by the presence of α-MnO2 diffractogram according to the ICSD No.20227. The SEM results showed that MnO2 had a spherical morphology with a particle diameter of 39.51 nm. α-MnO2 has a larger tunnel structure compared to β- and γ-MnO2, making the charge-discharge process easier so that α-MnO2 has the potential as a supercapacitor electrode material.

Abstract

A green chemistry-based ZnO nanoparticle synthesis method based on plant extracts has been developed. Raja nangka banana peel is one of them. The extraction time is one of the elements that influences the amounts of secondary metabolites. The longer the extraction time, the more secondary metabolites are obtained. If the optimal time is exceeded, the secondary metabolite compounds will decrease. The purpose of this research was to determine the optimal time to extract secondary metabolites from the raja nangka banana peel and to know the effect of extraction time on the characteristics of ZnO nanoparticles, which include morphology, size, and antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus epidermidis. The steps of this research: maceration, phytochemical tests and total levels tests, synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles, characterization, and antibacterial activity test against Staphylococcus epidermidis. Maceration for 24 hours is the best time for extracting secondary metabolites from raja nangka banana peels. The SEM test results show that the morphology of the three samples had agglomeration. The ZnO nanoparticles with 24-hour raja nangka banana peel extract had a smaller size of 295.2 nm and were spherical. Inhibition zone diameter from ZnO nanoparticles with 24-hour raja nangka banana peel extract has a larger area of 5.65 mm.
