The obtained green synthesized silver sample image (Fig. 2b–d)
shows the presence of polymorphic shapes like: rocky, flake type,
spherical, ellipsoidal and few irregular granulated compact/fused agglomerates
of powder with brighter facets. One can also observe that
each agglomerate is fused with each other loosely at their ends. The
average sizes of these agglomerates are in the range of 3 μm–20 μm
respectively. Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (elemental analysis) embedded
within the SEM instrument was carried out to detect the composition
of the obtained sample (Fig. 2e) which predominantly shows
the presence of elemental silver in high quantitieswith negligible traces
of oxygen as impurity. Also no other element was detected during the
complete scan rate procedure.
