Abstract

Potassium (K) doped ferric sulphide nanoparticles were prepared by a simple green synthesis (Bio-Assisted) method. Structural (XRD) studies confirm the formation of K-doped Ferric sulphide nanoparticles. The FESEM images show the agglomeration of nanoparticles that are mostly sponge like structure and spherical shape. The plant growth analysis revealed that potassium doped ferric sulphide nanoparticle could be used as plant growth promoter for high yield in agriculture.
