In the present study, sphere-like silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) were synthesized by using Camellia japonica leaf extract and its remediation industrial pollutants such as nitrobenzene and Eosin-Y (EY). As-prepared sphere-like Ag-NPs were characterized by various analytical and spectroscopic methods such as UV-visible spectroscopy, Xray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), Energy dispersive X-ray spectra (EDX), and the chemical constituents of the leaf extract were also analyzed by using Gas chromatography and Mass Spectroscopy (GC-MS). Fascinatingly, the as-prepared sphere-like Ag-NPs exhibits excellent electrocatalytic and photocatalytic activity for the reduction of nitrobenzene and photo-degradation of EY dye respectively. The Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and amperometric (i-t) studies realized that the electrochemical behavior of sphere-like Ag-NPs modified electrode on nitrobenzene reduction. The proposed nitrobenzene sensor exhibited appreciable wide linear response range and low detection limit of 0.05-21 mu M, 23-2593 mu M and 12 mu M, respectively. The Ag-NPs modified electrode showed excellent selectivity towards the nitrobenzene detection even in the presence of common metal ions and nitroaromatic containing substances. On the other hand, Ag-NPs have excellent photocatalytic activity with >97% degradation of EY dye after irradiated 60 min. These results indicated that the growth of sphere-like Ag-NPs should be a proficient. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
