Phytochemical Investigation, Synthesis and Characterization of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles by Peel Extract of Punica Granatum

Iron oxide nanoparticles are gradually being studied for many applications in the field of medicine, photonics, laser, and biophysics. In this experiment, dark synthesis is used for obtaining iron oxide nanoparticles from Punica granatum fruit peel extract. Results confirmed that all synthesized iron oxide nanoparticles have a purity and high degree of crystallinity. The size of the nanoparticles which is synthesized by this root has a high degree of crystalline structure with a crystalline size of 37.71 nm. The highest peaks angle is 33.240, and 35.710 with the interplanar spacing (hkl) at (104), and (112) respectively, and the index hkl based on ICSD no. 01-079-0007. UV–vis absorption recorded a characteristic peak at 653.9 nm for iron oxide nanoparticles. The bandgap analysis at 1.81 eV.
