| Abstract: | We studied the influence of synthesis parameters and the composition of the reaction mixture on the size and morphology of copper nanoparticles (NPs). Use of a surfactant (polyoxyethylenesorbitan monooleate) is promising for confining NP growth and stabilizing NPs. Concentration ranges of existence were determined for copper NP dispersions stable to aggregation and sedimentation. Scanning electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering were used to show that: the NP size varied from 10 to 65 nm, the average diameter was 25–35 nm, and the shape was spherical. The sizes of copper NP aggregates were determined. |
