Abstract

A simple and cost effective green synthesis (Bio-Assisted) method was used to prepare Potassium doped ferric sulphide nanoparticles. The FTIR spectrum of potassium doped ferric sulphide shows characteristic peak at 617.2 cm-1 indicating M-O bond and shows the presence of K and Fe. The XRD analysis revealed the crystalline nature of the NPs. The average crystallite size was found to be 7.02 nm. The observed FESEM images showed the agglomeration of nanoparticles and are sponge like structure. The study revealed that potassium doped ferric sulphide nanoparticles could be used for high yield in agriculture.
