Abstract

Abstract: The present work focuses on the green synthesis of nanoparticles by using bael leaves. It is a naturally occurring material for synthesizing nano additives. Characterization studies such as particle size analyzer and UV spectroscopy are been used to examine the inherent properties of bale leaf to be used as a nano material. The particle size study confirms that the produced nanoparticle has an average particle size of 50 nm with 200 nm diameter. The study by UV spectroscopy confirms that the nano crystal has a BCC structure with a peak absorption of 9.82 a.u. On the other hand, the physical and chemical properties of nano particle doped with B20 such as kinematic viscosity, calorific value, density and flash point are measured and compared with ASTM standard is presented in this paper.
