Udayabhanu C Gowda Popular answer

Thank you both professors for your answer.

Omar Gonzalez-Ortega

They can act as stabilizing agents

Nainsi Saxena

These polyphenols and flavonoids present in the plant extract help metal salt to reduce into metal ions, and thew will act as a stabilizing agent for the above process and as well won't affect the properties of the particles.
