Biosynthesis and Characterization of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles by using Siris Plant Extract

Abstract

Zinc oxide (ZnO) is an inorganic compound widely used in everyday applications. Present study focuses on the biosynthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles by zinc nitrate and utilizing the bio components of bark extract of Siris (Albizialebbeck (L.) Benth.). The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using UV-Visible spectrophotometer, Fourier transform spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Zeta Potential. The nanotechnology has recently gained the attention and vast area for research. The biologically synthesis of nanoparticles are eco-friendly, cost effective and nontoxic nature.

Keywords: Siris (Albizialebbeck (L.) Benth.), zinc oxide, Nanoparticles, UV-Visible Spectroscopy, FTIR, Zeta Potential
