Size range characteristics of the banana peel nanoparticles
The result of the size range characterization of the nanoparticles is presented in Fig. 1. This was expressed as a plot of the wavelength versus absorbance in the UV light spectrum. Based on the analysis presented in the Mie theorem (Eq. 1), we obtained the particle size of the banana peel nanoparticles in the range of 3.48–4.92 nm between 495 and 700 nm wavelengths of the spectrum. The nanoparticles showed a negative response to heat absorbance but indicated a positive response to heat transmission at the various wavelengths.
