Abstract

In the present era, synthesis of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2NPs) employing natural resources as reducing and stabilizing agents has been widely used and advocated by the researchers because of their eco-friendly, simple, economical and viable features. Fabrication of non-toxic, cost-effective CeO2 NPs was carried out by eco-friendly approach using Euphorbia hirta leaf extract. The optical properties of green mediated cerium oxide nanoparticles revealed through UV-visible spectroscopy. The active biomolecules and the functional groups responsible for biological reduction of metal ions into nano-scale CeO2 particles were analysed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The structure, phase and crystalline planes of nanoparticles were investigated using X-ray diffraction studies. The experimental results reveal that Euphorbia hirta leaf can be employed as an economical and beneficial potential bio-resource for the synthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles. These GNPs have potential applications in many fields, viz., medical, industrial, environmental, etc.
