Green synthesis of spherical shaped silver nanoparticles using allium cepa leaves extract and its photocatalytic activity

Green synthesis of spherical shaped silver nanoparticles using allium cepa leaves extract and its photocatalytic activity

Spherical silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) (5–15 nm) were synthesized by a simple electrochemical method at room temperature using Allium Cepa (AC) leaves extract. AC leaves extract that acts as a reducing and stabilizing agent is capable of producing AgNPs without any agglomeration. The phytochemical p...
