Abstract

As copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NP) due to their unique electric, thermal, mechanical, catalytic and magnetic properties, are widely used in various fields such as agricultural, environmental, industrial, and medical. Thus, their large-scale economical production needs to be developed. In the implementation of nanotechnological syntheses, the applications of energy-, time-, and cost-effective synthesis processes by recycling environmentally friendly plant waste material are playing an increasing role. These methods can be easily applied on an industrial scale and are also of great importance in waste recycling. In this regard, the aim of our research was the production of copper oxide nanoparticles using the extracts of several plants (for example green tea, Virginia creeper and coffee arabica). The properties of the obtained particles, such as size and crystal structure, were determined and compared to the chemically synthesized particles. The applicability of different plant extracts during the CuO nanoparticle synthesis were established.
