Abstract:

Current study shows simple and easy method for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles using Palm bark, Palm leaf and Ghaf leaf aqueous extract. Each extracted solution used as reducing and capping agent. Various techniques used to characterize synthesized nanoparticles are DLS, FTIR and UV–Visible spectroscopy. UV–Visible spectrophotometer showed absorbance peak in range of 300 – 800 nm. Results confirmed this green method as simple, rapid, eco-friendly, non-toxic, one step and an alternative to conventional physical and chemical methods. The silver nanoparticles were prepared from silver ions at room temperature, without using any hazardous chemical.
