Abstract

As a reliable, sustainable, and environmentally friendly method for producing a variety of nanomaterials, green synthesis has attracted a lot of interest. Magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO-NPs), which have a distinctive biocompatible nature, have been exploited as a superior nanocarrier. Due to their high degree of ionization, photocatalytic properties, and effective resistance to high temperatures, they have many advantages. They have recently been used as a substrate in the biomedical industry and as a novel utilization in refractory materials. The present study involved the 1st-time biogenic synthesis of MgO-NPs successfully by using the leaf extract of Tinospora cordifolia. T. cordifolia is commonly known as “Guduchi”, which was used not only as a reducing agent but also as a capping agent too, resulting in increased stability. The effect of aging was observed for the 1st time on the properties (i.e., stability, dispersity, and size of MgO-NPs) of biogenic synthesized MgONPs. Here, the aging factor was studied for different hours (named as samples 1 and 2) along with the constant temperature during the green production of MgO-NPs. Sample 1 was stirred for 12 h, while correlated sample 2 was stirred for 24 h in the continuation form at constant temperature (i.e., 40°C). It was observed that as the time duration of stirring with temperature increased, the stability, homogeneity, and decrease in size of the nanoparticles increased
