ABSTRACT The biosynthesis of nanoparticles is an important branch in nanotechnology and it is plays a vital role in material science. In this study, the Silver Nanoparticles were synthesized by using aqueous extract of unripe fruit of Annona reticulata L. The synthesized Silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Energy-dispresive x-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The UV-Vis spectroscopy shows Plasmon resonance of AgNPs at 482nm. The X-ray diffraction analysis show the average particle size is about 12.72 nm. This rapid biosynthesis process is a cost effective, easy and environmental friendly alternative to chemical and physical process. Keywords: Nanotechnology, Annona reticulata L., AgNPs, UV-Vis, FT-IR, XRD, SEM and EDX. [Download Article] [Download Certifiate] |
