Novel visible-light-driven Ag ()-doped BiZrO (BZO) nanocomposites in pudina (P) extract ( L.), -1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 mol %, were synthesized by the one-pot greener solution combustion method. The as-synthesized nanocomposite materials were characterized by using various spectral [X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared, UV-visible, UV- diffuse reflectance spectra, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy], electrochemical (cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy), and analytical (scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) techniques.

Corrosion inhibition of mild steel (MS) was studied using isolate in 0.5 M HSO, which was isolated from rotten grapes () via biofilm formation. Biofilm over the MS surface was asserted by employing FT-IR and FE-SEM with EDXS, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), AFM, and DFT-ESP techniques.

In this rapid growing eco-friendly research world, synthesis of non-toxic, highly effective photocatalyst for potential applications is necessary. Herein, a strong ability BiZrO nanoparticle (BZO NP) with pyrochlore structure was fabricated by solution combustion synthesis using green (Mentha spicata) and chemical (Glycine) fuels. The X-ray diffraction analysis confirms the formation of pure phase for synthesized BZO NP using pudina extract (BZOP NP) compared to BZO NP using Glycine fuel (BZOG NP).
