Abstract
Contamination of surfaces has long been identified as a significant factor in viral transmission. Therefore, sustained efforts are required to address this issue. This work aims to build a scientific database on nano-sized metal oxides as intelligent materials for surface disinfection against corona viruses, synthesize and characterize nano-sized MgO, and discuss the possibility of using it in virus eradication. The MgO nanoparticle was prepared through the heating method. Meanwhile, XRD diffractometer, Scan electron microscope, and nitrogen adsorption were used to characterize the MgO nanoparticle. The synthesized MgO nanoparticle showed an average crystallite size of 18.55nm, lattice strain 0.0053, surface area 27.56 m2/g and d-spacing 2.1092. The outcomes of this review highlight the advantage and challenges of AgO, CuO, ZnO, TiO2 and MgO nanoparticles and their utilization for surface disinfection against coronaviruses.
