Abstract


Due to scientific and industrial interest, copper nanoparticles have attracted a lot of interest in the current decade, special due to its applications in anti-biotic, anti-microbial and anti-fungal agent, catalysis, conductive inks, coatings, coolant and textiles. The present study focused, on the cost effective synthesis technique and environmental effects on copper nanoparticlesdue to its high surface sensitivity. The structural composition, particle size and optical properties of copper nanoparticleswere determined by X-raysand UV-Visible spectroscopy, reveals that the particles have size in order to 9 nm. A plasmonic study through a UV-visible spectrum shows the peak shift from 411 to 316 nm, with color change in the coppernanoparticles indicate the surface sensitivity due to very large surface area.The synthesis method, reported in current work might be useful for industrial production of Cu nanoparticles.
