Abstract
Eco-friendly iron and manganese oxide nanoparticles (Fe2O3 and Mn2O3) were synthesized and integrated into graphene sheets to form uniform composites. These composites were then embedded in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fibers using electrospinning. Comprehensive characterization of the composites and the final composite fibers was conducted using XRD, FE-SEM, and FTIR to analyze their structural complexity and morphological differences. The antibacterial efficacy of the resulting PVA nanofibers was evaluated against Escherichia coli, which is a common pathogen in hospital environments. The results show a significant bactericidal effect against these bacteria, which highlights their potential in medical applications, such as functional bandages and wound dressings. This study paves the way for potential commercial applications of these nanofibers in healthcare settings.
