Green synthesis of zero valent iron nanoparticle using mango peel extract and surface characterization using XPS and GC-MS

In this study, a novel form of zero valent iron nanoparticle (GMP-nZVI) was successfully synthesized using mango peel extracts. Iron on the surface of the synthesized particle was negligible. Surface structure and compositional analysis was carried out using XPS and FTIR whereby the characteristic f...
