چکیده

Synthesizing plant-derived nanoparticles attract attention due to both their broad-spectrum biological applications and sustainable production. This paper describes the production of Cobalt oxide nanoparticles (Co₃O₄ NPs) using M. charantia leaf extract. The Uv–Vis absorption spectrum of them has peaks at 309 and 595nm. FTIR spectroscopy reveals bands at 580cm^-1 and 667cm^-1 and confirms the formation of Co₃O₄. The particle size was determined by XRD to be between 44.68 and 89.20nm. The Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) showed that Co₃O₄ NPs were irregular in shape and between 40 and 90nm in size. Further, the dye degrading capacity of this nanoparticle was ascertained. The dye degrading capacity of Co₃O₄ NPs exhibited was 81.50% obtained at 90 minutes of light irradiation.
