Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) were formed through a simple green synthesis route using Vitex negundo (V. negundo) leaf extract as reducing and capping source. Morphological, structural, chemical optical features of prepared ZnO NPs examined by field emission SEM, XRD, EDAX, PL, FTIR UV-vis DRS, respectively. FESEM images precisely visualized morphology the spherical with particles size ranges between 5 35 nm having mean diameter ∼19 nm. XRD pattern revealed formation hexagonal wurtzite structured high crystallinity. Asymmetric stretching vibration Zn-O bond analysis confirmed NPs. Catalytic activity was assessed against methylene blue (MB) dye degradation under natural sunlight illumination. Results photocatalytic experiment disclosed an impressive MB efficiency 98.50% at 60 min. Moreover, synthesized exhibited maximum mineralization (TOC removal) 92.34% h

Achieving the smallest crystallite/particle size of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) reported to date, measuring 5.2/12.41 nm with Justicia adhatoda (J. adhatoda) leaf extract, this study introduces a facile green synthesis. Utilizing aqueous J. extract as both reducing and stabilizing agent, method leverages plant's rich phytochemical composition produce highly crystalline morphologically controlled ZnO NPs. This precise particle control highlights effectiveness synthesis process in morphological tuning. The synthesized NPs were thoroughly characterized using XRD, UV-vis spectroscopy, FTIR, FESEM, HRTEM, which collectively revealed superior crystallinity, morphology, unique surface properties conferred by bio-capping. photocatalytic performance these biogenic was evaluated for degradation two model pollutants: malachite (MG), synthetic dye, 4-nitrophenol (4-NP), toxic organic compound. exhibited exceptional efficiency, achieving 99.8% MG within 180 minutes demonstrating rapid reduction 4-NP 4-aminophenol reaction rate constant 0.245 min-1 under UV sunlight irradiation. Mechanistic studies attributed high reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation electron-hole pair interactions, supported improved charge separation area. work not only establishes potential adhatoda-mediated addressing persistent pollutants but also sets benchmark size-controlled By delivering scalable eco-friendly water remediation technologies, advances nanotechnology.
