Abstract

Presently the progress of green chemistry in the synthesis of nanoparticles (NPS) with the use of plants has engrossed a great attention. This study reports the exploit of aqueous extract ofPhyllanthusemblicaseed powder as an eco-friendly agent for the pattern of Zinc Oxide nanoparticle. The present exploration describes the synthesis and characterization of ZnO nanoparticles prepared by green technique using X-ray diffraction studies (XRD), Tunnelling electron microscopy studies (TEM), Energy dispersive analysis of X-ray (EDAX), Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR) and Photoluminescence studies (PL).
