Green Synthesis and Characterizations of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) Nanoparticles Using Aqueous Leaf Extracts of Coffee (Coffea arabica) and Its Application in Environmental Toxicity Reduction

A green deposition method of zinc oxide nanoparticles using coffee leaf extraction was successfully prepared. The use of these preparation techniques is accepted by many researchers because it is nonexpensive and simple and has no environmental impact during the operation. The determination and reduction of Zn ions to ZnO NPs were characterized by using a UV-visible spectroscope. The UV-visible spectroscopy result reveals that the large band gap...
