    The cobalt and copper nanoparticles are gaining wider attention due to their applications in medicines, chemistry, biotechnology and agriculture. In the present study, cobalt and copper nanoparticles were synthesized by green technology using leaf extract of Rumex hastatus and characterized by Ultraviolet-visible Spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) technologies. The synthesis of nanoparticles were observed by colour change of reaction mixture and UVVisible spectrum showed maximum absorption peaks at 620 nm and 570 nm for copper and cobalt nanoparticles respectively. The FT-IR spectrum of Rumex hastatus leaf extract showed prominent peaks at 3240-2400 cm-1 (O-H stretch), 1710 cm-1 (C=O stretch), 1654cm-1 (C=C stretch) and 1618cm-1 (C=C stretch). However, these peaks were absent in the sp.. Read More»
