Nanomaterials consist of particles of size 1-100nm, and nanoparticles have high catalytic
reactivity, thermal conductivity, chemical stability and optical performance. Nanoparticles have gained
importance in many application areas, making a green and environmentally friendly method in their
production necessary. Green synthesis is the synthesis in which nanoparticles are using living organisms
such as plant extracts, organisms or their components, it is an environmentally friendly method compared
to other physical and chemical methods, biocompatible, safe and low-cost synthesis produced with. ZnO
nanoparticles create new opportunities in many application areas due to their optical and chemical
properties, biocompatibility, high solubility and non-toxicity. ZnO nanoparticles are characterized by wide
band gap (3.37eV), high binding energy (60meV), optical and UV filtering properties. Tilia is a plant native
to Europe and Western Asia. Its main active ingredients include flavonoids, mucilage, essential oil, phenolic
acids, amino acids and others. In this research, green synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles was carried out using
Tilia extract. The morphology of the obtained nanoparticles was examined by FE-SEM technique and round
structures were observed. Also, UV-Vis measurements were made and changes were detected depending
on different zinc sources.
