A pandemic of coronavirus infection is causing a significant public health hazard globally, putting millions of people at risk in an increasing amount of countries. Nanostructured materials have been recognized to be highly efficient against coronaviruses. ZnO nanoparticles possess unique features that enable to act as anti-bacterial and anti-viral.
Hence, the aim of the current investigation is to produce zinc oxide nanoparticles and utilized as surface coating materials against COVID- 19. Thermal decomposition has been utilized in this investigation to fabricate ZnO nanoparticles with crystallite of 41 and 55 nm. The study outcomes demonstrated that Zinc nanoparticles is a favorable material for future usage as an anti-coronavirus surface due to their ecologically friendly features and exceptional physical and chemical functionality.
