SEM and EDX. (a–h) The morphologies of different films are characterized by SEM. (a), M; (b), MP; (c–e), MPZ, MPA, and MPAZ, respectively; (f–h), higher magnification images of MPZ, MPA, and MPAZ, respectively; (i), EDX analysis of the elemental mapping of the selected region (indicated by a pink box) revealed the presence of zinc (Zn, blue), carbon (C, white), oxygen (O, red), silver (Ag, yellow) and chlorine (Cl, green), and the uniform distribution of ZnO and AgNPs on the surface of MPAZ film.
