Abstract EN

We report the room temperature (25–30°C) green synthesis of cobalt nanomaterial (CoNM) in an aqueous medium using gallic acid as a reducing and stabilizing agent.

pH 9.5 was found to favour the formation of well dispersed flower shaped CoNM.

The optimization of various parameters in preparation of nanoscale was studied.

The AFM, SEM, EDX, and XRD characterization studies provide detailed information about synthesized CoNM which were of 4–9 nm in dimensions.

The highly stable CoNM were used to study their catalytic activity for removal of azo dyes by selecting methyl orange as a model compound.

The results revealed that 0.4 mg of CoNM has shown 100% removal of dye from 50 μM aqueous solution of methyl orange.

The synthesized CoNM can be easily recovered and recycled several times without decrease in their efficiency.
