Stabilization of Silver Nanoparticles in Water with a Cationic Copolymer Based on Poly(Aminoethyl Methacrylate)
It has been shown that a cationic copolymer based on poly(aminoethyl methacrylate) is capable of stabilizing silver nanoparticle dispersions in aqueous media. Nanoparticles have been prepared via chemical reduction of AgNO 3 in an aqueous solution with sodium borohydride in the presence of a cationi...

Using dynamic light scattering and scanning electron microscopy, consistent information has been obtained on the sizes and size distribution of the stabilized nanoparticles. |
