Synthesis and Characterization of Pure and Capped Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles using Pesidium Gujava Leaf Extract

Nanotechnology is a promising concept in the field of science and technology. In this present work, the ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized with and without Pesidium guajava leaf extract by using Microwave irradiation method. The formation of zinc oxide nano particle has been characterized by various techniques like XRD, EDS, FTIR and SEM. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) spectra which reveal the crystalline size of the sample. The qualitative and quantitative component of the ZnO-nanoparticles analysed using Energy dispersive X-Ray microscopy (EDS).The functional groups of the ZnO nanoparticles were investigated through Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The surface morphological structure of zinc oxide nanoparticles were obtained in Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The Zinc oxide nanoparticles are mostly found and applied in field of medical science and antibacterial activities.
