Abstract
Cost-efficient and environmentally friendly green synthesis like metallic nanomaterials is a rapidly growing research through nanotechnology. The present research article's synthesizing of magnesium hydroxide nanoparticles utilizing Mangifera indica leaf extracts has been examined through Fourier – transform particle size and evaluated through spectrometry and electron microscopy. Preliminary phytochemical analyses like M. indica leaf extracts have been conducted, and MGONPS have been ready through M. indica leaf extracts while allowed to treat for magnesium nitrate. Eventually, different functional factions within phytoconstituents and the shape of an MGONPS have been recognized through FTIR and SEM analysis. Existence like MGONPS within green extricate has affirmed through the change in color through the yellowy orange of about brownish coloring. Fourier transform infrared analysis revealed its effect on various structural features between frequency spectrum 400 and 4000/cm. SEM analysis revealed its nanometric amount, like magnesium particulate, which it created. Cost-effective and environmentally favorable Green synthesis of Metallic Nanoparticles is a fast-growing research in nanotechnology.

Introduction
Nanotechnology defines the process of designing synthesis and applying materials of the size range of nanoscale. Any particles having 1 nm to 100 nm are considered a nanoparticle, and the materials or chemicals in this range are commonly referred to as nanomaterials 1. Examples of nanomaterials are nanofibres, nanorods, nanosheets, and nanospheres. Nowadays, nanomaterials find significant applications in healthcare, electronics, cosmetics, and other research areas.Metallic nanomaterials have different chemical and physical properties than most metallic materials factors that could demonstrate appeal through various industrial implementations 2. Nanomaterials could be categorized into multiple types according to their shape, morphological characteristics, and physicochemical characteristics. A few of those were carbon-based nanomaterials, ceramic nanomaterials, metallic nanoparticles, semiconductor nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, and lipid-based nanoparticles. Nano is just a metric quantified with one billionth of such a meter and hides a thickness of 10 atoms 3.

The magnesium hydroxide nanoparticle able to prepare through the Mangifera indica leaves extract is just as tries to follow. 30 ml of a leaves extract been begun taking in a 500 ml beaker but also 150 ml of a freshly made 5mm magnesium nitrate solution drop at a time using just a burette as well as 1m NaOH also was got to add fall prudent for perpetual stirring as 12 hours at such a temperature like 80oC. It is forming as MGONPS and has also been recognized with a transition like the color of solution through the orange to tan color, confirming the formation of Magnesium oxide nanoparticles. The newly synthesized Magnesium oxide nanoparticles were centrifuged tube at about 8000 rpm for 10 min. Its precipitate was washed for ethanol for numerous periods of back remove its alloying elements and placed in the oven for eight hrs [Figure 4, Figure 5]. Something that eventually calcined within the electric furnace, sometimes when 60oC such as 30min, but also brown colorful MGO nanomaterials has been acquired 11.

Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy
Characterization Fourier transforms infrared for permittivity method has been used to categorize the presence of particular chemical factions within evaluated catheter specimens 12. Fourier transform infrared measurement techniques have been done on such a Nicolet 6700 spectrometer
X-ray Diffraction
X-ray diffraction is just a standard technique that ascertains a specimen's component but rather a crystalline phase. Such as greater crystallines, such as macromolecules and inorganic compounds, could be used to determine its configuration, like atomic nuclei inside the specimen. If the crystallite size is just too tiny, this can ascertain composition of the sample, crystalline phase, and stage purification 13.
Scanning Electron Microscopy
Scanning Electron Microscopy is a reference technique for determining dimensional nanoparticle characteristics 14. Through the SEM pictures and analyze their radii, such as thresholding and watershed.
