In recent years, there has been a dramatic growth in the interdisciplinary world of nanotechnology, and the emergence of its potential plans is still a major industry revolution. In this study, NiO nanoparticles (NPs) was synthesized by a green approach using aqueous extract of oak as an effective reducing and capping agent. For the first time, oak fruit extract was employed for the biosynthesis of NiO NPs form nickle chloride solution as precursor. In this eco-friendly method any toxic surfactants and addatives or hazardous solvent were not used. Successful formation of NiO nanoparticles was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD).
