Abstract

Sterculia foetida fruit shell was used for the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles. Optimized reduction of silver ion (Ag+) to metallic silver nanoparticles (Ag?) was carried out at room temperature for 16hr. The reduced silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy, particle size analyzer, FTIR and SEM analysis of treated cotton fabric not only showed superb coloration but also proven to be very good in antibacterial and ultraviolet protection properties even after ten washes.
