Synthesis of silver nanoparticles with polystyrylcarboxylate ligands

Silver nanoparticles stabilized by polystyrylmonocaboxylate ligands with varied chain lengths are synthesized via the low-temperature reduction of silver polystyrylmonocaboxylate with triethylamine. Silver nanoparticles have small dimensions, narrow size distributions, high stability, and ability to...

Description
Summary:Silver nanoparticles stabilized by polystyrylmonocaboxylate ligands with varied chain lengths are synthesized via the low-temperature reduction of silver polystyrylmonocaboxylate with triethylamine. Silver nanoparticles have small dimensions, narrow size distributions, high stability, and ability to redisperse in nonpolar solvents. The kinetic features of the reaction are studied via high-performance liquid chromatography; UV, visible and IR spectroscopy; and transmission electron microscopy. It is shown that the reduction of silver occurs in the cores of reverse micelle species organized by diphilic macromolecules of silver polystyrylmonocarboxylates.
