Green synthesis of metallic nanoparticles has accumulated an ultimate interest over the last decade due to their distinctive properties that make them applicable in various fields of science and technology. Metal nanoparticles that are synthesized by using plants have emerged as nontoxic and ecofriendly. In the current study, the optimal reaction condition for the synthesis of zero valent iron nanoparticles using Malva extract was developed. For the first time, aqueous extract of Malva parviflora was used as a sustainable source of reducing and capping agents to synthesize zero valent iron ...
