Please I was synthesizing Iron nanoparticle using Eucalyptus leaf extract which after the first trial that I got black color particles. However, subsequently I am getting brown color particles.
@ Mahadi, properties of iron nanoparticle depend upon the synthesis route as well as salts you are using. Hematite is the mineral form of iron (III) oxide (α-. Fe2O3) which color of brown to black.
