Description :
Metallic nanoparticles have possible applications in diverse areas such as electronics, cosmetics, coatings, packaging, and biotechnology. The objective of the present work is to develop a procedure for obtaining ZnO nanoparticle using coffee powder. Coffee powder was utilized as template for synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles. The synthesis Zn nanoparticles were characterized by UV/VIS spectroscopy, particle size analyzer and Scanning Electron Microscopy. Thus from this study it can be concluded that 1-propanol coffee powder extracts can be effectively used for synthesizing Zn nanoparticles.
