Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of adding Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) to the size of silver nanoparticle synthesized using bioreductor soursop leaf extract (Annona muricata L.). Silver nanoparticle made through method bioreduction, bioreductor solution was mixed with AgNO3 precursor, without addition of PVA and with the addition of PVA. That the variant of concentrations is 1%; 1.5%; 2%; and 2.5%. Based on the analysis of functional groups of soursop leaf extract using a spectrophotometer FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infrared), showed absorption at wave number 3443 cm-1 which indicate a -OH group.The process of formation of silver nanoparticles seen by UV-Vis absorption. The measurement results shows that the absorbance value increased with increasing contact time. The maximum absorbance measurement result of the samples synthesized each concentration showed λmax 503.0; 463.1; 436.0; 476.1; 503.1 nm for two days with various concentrations without PVA, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, and 2.5%. The size of silver nanoparticle were determined using XRD (X-Ray Diffraction), the average size distribution of silver nanoparticle without the addition of PVA is 30.80- 50.25 nm and the smallest size range is 9.90-10.20 nm silver nanoparticle with addition PVA 1.5%. Based on research that has been done, it can concluded that addition of PVA have the effect to the size of silver nanoparticle. The stabilizer acts to control the size of silver nanoparticle.
