It is an age of nanomaterials. Nanotechnology has revolutionized the scientific world. Every sphere of technology has benefited significantly by using nanomaterials. A number of physical and chemical methods are being used for the synthesis of nanomaterials. In recent years, much emphasis is placed on green synthesis, particularly by using plant extracts or microorganisms. This is useful for promoting environmental sustainability. Microwave heating and ultrasound techniques are also being used for the synthesis of different types of nanomaterials. Green synthesis is a more advanced method of synthesizing nanomaterials over other methods because of its simplicity, lower cost, and relatively higher reproducibility. Plants produce more stable nanoparticles compared to other means, and it is straightforward to scale up. The risk of contamination is also lower. In this article, different methods of green synthesis of nanomaterials and applications have been reviewed and discussed.
这是一个纳米材料的时代。纳米技术已经彻底改变了科学界。每一个技术领域都通过使用纳米材料显著受益。许多物理和化学方法被用于合成纳米材料。近年来，人们非常重视绿色合成，特别是使用植物提取物或微生物。这有助于促进环境可持续性。微波加热和超声技术也被用于合成不同类型的纳米材料。与其他方法相比，绿色合成是一种更先进的合成纳米材料的方法，因为它简单、成本低、相对重复性高。与其他方法相比，植物产生的纳米颗粒更稳定，而且很容易扩大规模。污染的风险也较低。本文综述和讨论了纳米材料的绿色合成方法及其应用。
