“…Hydrazine, an inorganic compound (N 2 H 4 ) is a highly reactive base, used widely as reducing agent, with low cost, being highly toxic in high and low doses [27,28]. However, to control the struc tural and surface morphology of nanomaterials, aqueous solutions of hydrazine turn out very useful [29,30]. Besides, the role of nitrates in different concentrations has been demonstrated to be important in the control of particle size [31,32].…”
