Abstract
Abstract Zn1−xTixO (x = 0, 0.01, 0.03 and 0.05) nanoparticles were prepared by high-energy ball milling at 400 rpm. The milled powders were characterized by X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and the results exhibited that Ti-doped ZnO nanoparticles consisted of single phase with hexagonal structure when the mixtures of ZnO and TiO2 powders were milled for 20 h. The crystallite size reduced as a function of the doping content and milling time from 1 to 10 h then increased after milling for 20 h and when the annealing temperature increased. The strain changed inversely to the crystallite size. A wider band-gap was obtained by increasing the doping content and annealing temperature because of a reduction in defect concentration. Both ZnO- and Ti-doped ZnO nanoparticles caused damage to S. aureus, E. coli, P. mirabilis, S. typhi and P. aeruginosa.
