Green Synthesis of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) Nanoparticles Using Ocimum Tenuiflorum Leaves
Sagar Raut | Dr. P. V. Thorat [2] | Rohini Thakre
Abstract: In this research paper, we discussed on the synthesis and characterization of ZnO nanoparticles by green synthesis method. Here we utilized the leaves of Ocimum Tenuiflorum plant as reducing agent in the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles. Green synthesis method avoids inert gases, high pressure, laser radiation, high temperature, toxic chemicals etc. as compared to conventional method like sol-gel technique method, laser ablation method, solvothermal method, inert gas condensation method, chemical reduction method etc. Prepared ZnO nanoparticles were characterized by X-Ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) technique, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The average particle are calculated as 13.86 nm by using Scherrer-s formula.
