Abstract Calotropis procera is considered a medicinal plant belonging to the Asclepiadaceae family, surrounded throughout India and in other tropical areas. The common names of C. procera are Arka, Akanal, Madar, and Akanda. Based on the morphological characteristics, the leaves of C. procera is characterized as ovate, obovate, ovate-oblong or elliptical. This study explores the synthesis of Carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) which have emerged as promising materials for various applications due to their unique properties, including high surface area, excellent electrical conductivity, and biocompatibility. In this research, we present a novel method for the synthesis of CNPs utilizing Calotropis procera, a widely available and renewable plant source. The synthesis process involves the pyrolysis of Calotropis procera biomass under controlled conditions, followed by subsequent purification steps to obtain pure CNPs. The synthesized CNPs were characterized using techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) to determine their morphology, crystalline structure, and functional groups. The utilization of Calotropis procera as a precursor for CNP synthesis offers a sustainable and eco-friendly approach, contributing to the development of green nanotechnology. The abundance and accessibility of Calotropis procera make this method cost-effective and scalable, paving the way for large-scale production of CNPs with minimal environmental impact.
