Eco-friendly Synthesis of Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles using Arabic Gum
Authors
Abstract:
Magnesium oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using Arabic gum as a biotemplate andmagnesium nitrate as the magnesium source by the sol-gel method. This method has manyadvantages such as nontoxic, economic viability, ease to scale up, less time consuming andenvironmental friendly approach for the synthesis of MgO nanoparticles without using anyorganic chemicals. Nanoparticles were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR)spectroscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The averagecrystallite size of MgO nanoparticles was calculated using Scherrer formula and WilliamsonHall equation. The powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed the formation of cubicphase MgO with average particle size of 14 (Scherrer formula) and 5.3 (Williamson Hallequation) nm.

A novel magnetically recoverable Au nanocatalyst was fabricated by spontaneous green synthesis of Au nanoparticles on the surface of gum arabic-modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles. A layer of Au nanoparticles with thickness of about 2 nm was deposited on the surface of gum arabic-modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles, because gum arabic acted as a reducing agent and a stabilizing agent simultaneously. The resu...
