Abstract

Recfently thegreen synthesis of nano particles involving plant extract has attracted the attention of researchers.In the present research program iron nano particles have been synthesized by using aquous extract of ten plants and spcies at room temperature. . Synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using UV-visible spectrophotometer and SEM methods. The change in color and pH was observed significantly. Novelty of this present study is that the plant extract is very cost effective and eco friendly and thus can be economic and effective alternative for the large scale synthesis of iron nanoparticles.
