A
facile, eco-friendly, room-temperature method for rapid one-pot synthesis of Au metallic nanoparticles has been
developed based on the successive reduction of Au(III) precursors with gallic acid (GA) in an aqueous environment.
The morphology and surface analysis of the resulting Au nanoparticles were confirmed by transmission electron microscopy
followed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In order to tune particle size optimum GA amount is determined with TEM
and particle size distribution was measured. The average particle size of gold nanoparticles was calculated as 40 nm. This study
effectively demonstrates for the Au NPs synthesis which can be effectively achieved by acting GA as reducer and stabilizator.
