The synthesis and characterization of two new carbosilane dendrons functionalized in the focal point with a single thiol group is described. These molecules were used as stabilizing agents for the formation of gold nanoparticles. These materials were obtained by the reduction of hydrogen tetrachloroaurate phase-transferred into toluene in the presence of the carbosilane dendrons. The gold nanoparticle-cored dendrons (NCDs) were characterized by TEM, XPS, AFM, IR, UV, and NMR techniques. Average particle diameter ranged from 2.5 to 2.6 nm with narrow size distribution and remarkable stability; in particular, the elimination of the protecting shells to give naked gold, after NCDs deposition on a support, is more difficult using carbosilane dendrons than in the case of conventional dodecanethiol-protected gold nanoparticles.  相似文献

Gold nanoparticles with pre-selected size in the range 5–40 nm were synthesized by γ-irradiation of Au3+ solution containing natural polysaccharide alginate as a stabilizer. The gold nanoparticles with controllable size were prepared by two approaches: (i) varying the concentration of Au3+ from 0.25 to 1 mM and alginate from 0.25% to 1% (w/v) and (ii) enlargement of seed particles with double size from 20 to 40 nm at [Au3+]/[Au0]=6. The obtained gold nanoparticles were characterized by UV–vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The results indicated that γ-irradiation method is suitable for production of gold nanoparticles with controllable size and high purity.  相似文献

The microemulsion method for the preparation of nanoparticles is well known. We have used the aqueous core of highly concentrated aerosol OT in hexane solution to synthesize gold nanorod by utilizing the aqueous core of surfactant aggregates as host nanoreactor. The shape and size of the aqueous core as well as the particles formed inside the core can be controlled by changing the parameter W0 (water to surfactant ratio), concentration of gold salt and the concentration of surfactant. When the concentration of the surfactant is very high the shape of the aqueous droplet does not remain spherical but take the shape of prolate. In our study we have made gold nanorods by the reduction of gold chloride with sodium borohydride in the aqueous core of 1 M AOT hexane at a W0 of 10. The rods are highly monodispersed with a diameter of about 20 nm and a length of 200 nm with an aspect ratio of 10. The absorption spectra of the gold nanorods show two different peaks one at 535 nm and the other at 965 nm. The particles were used as a catalyst for the reduction of eosin with sodium borohydride. The rate constant comes out be very large in comparison with that of uncatalysed reaction. The reaction was carried out at various temperatures between 20 and 60 °C and the activation energy of the reaction was calculated using Arrhenius plot between–ln k and 1/T. The activation energy of the gold nanorods catalysed reaction comes out to be more than two times as compared to uncatalysed reaction.  相似文献

The paper reports the pH controlled synthesis of silver nanoparticles using honey as reducing and stabilizing agents. By adjusting the pH of the aqueous solution containing metal ions and honey, nanoparticles of various size could be obtained at room temperature. The nanoparticles were characterized by UV–visible, high-resolution TEM, XRD and FTIR measurements. The colloid obtained at a pH of 8.5 is found to consist of monodispersed and nearly spherical silver nanoparticles of size ~4 nm which is a significant advancement in biosynthesis. The high crystallinity with fcc phase is evidenced by clear lattice fringes in the high-resolution TEM image and peaks in the XRD pattern corresponding to (1 1 1), (2 0 0), (2 2 0), (3 1 1) and (2 2 2) planes. FTIR spectrum indicates that the nanoparticles are bound to protein through the carboxylate ion group.  相似文献

A versatile route has been explored for the synthesis of nanorods of transition metal (Cu, Ni, Mn, Zn, Co and Fe) oxalates using reverse micelles. Transmission electron microscopy shows that the as-prepared nanorods of nickel and copper oxalates have diameter of 250 nm and 130 nm while the length is of the order of 2.5 μm and 480 nm, respectively. The aspect ratio of the nanorods of copper oxalate could be modified by changing the solvent. The average dimensions of manganese, zinc and cobalt oxalate nanorods were 100 μm, 120 μm and 300 nm, respectively, in diameter and 2.5 μm, 600 nm and 6.5 μm, respectively, in length. The aspect ratio of the cobalt oxalate nanorods could be modified by controlling the temperature.The nanorods of metal (Cu, Ni, Mn, Zn, Co and Fe) oxalates were found to be suitable precursors to obtain a variety of transition metal oxide nanoparticles. Our studies show that the grain size of CuO nanoparticles is highly dependent on the nature of non-polar solvent used to initially synthesize the oxalate rods. All the commonly known manganese oxides could be obtained as pure phases from the single manganese oxalate precursor by decomposing in different atmospheres (air, vacuum or nitrogen). The ZnO nanoparticles obtained from zinc oxalate rods are ~55 nm in diameter. Oxides with different morphology, Fe3O4 nanoparticles faceted (cuboidal) and Fe2O3 nanoparticles (spherical) could be obtained.  相似文献

Silica-metal core–shell particles, as for instance those having siliceous core and nanostructured gold shell, attracted a lot of attention because of their unique properties resulting from combination of mechanical and thermal stability of silica and magnetic, electric, optical and catalytic properties of metal nanocrystals such as gold, silver, platinum and palladium. Often, the shell of the core–shell particles consists of a large number of metal nanoparticles deposited on the surface of relatively large silica particles, which is the case considered in this work. Namely, silica particles having size of about 600 nm were subjected to surface modification with 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane. This modification altered the surface properties of silica particles, which was demonstrated by low pressure nitrogen adsorption at ?196 °C. Next, gold nanoparticles were deposited on the surface of aminopropyl-modified silica particles using two strategies: (i) direct deposition of gold nanoparticles having size of about 10 nm, and (ii) formation of gold nanoparticles by adsorption of tetrachloroauric acid on aminopropyl groups followed by its reduction with formaldehyde.The overall morphology of silica–gold particles and the distribution of gold nanoparticles on the surface of modified silica colloids were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. It was shown that direct deposition of colloidal gold on the surface of large silica particles gives more regular distribution of gold nanopartciles than that obtained by reduction of tetrachloroauric acid. In the latter case the gold layer consists of larger nanoparticles (size of about 50 nm) and is less regular. Note that both deposition strategies afforded silica–gold particles having siliceous cores covered with shells consisting of gold nanoparticles of tunable concentration.  相似文献

The biological synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) of various shapes (triangle, hexagonal, and spherical) using hot water olive leaf extracts as reducing agent is reported. The size and the shape of Au nanoparticles are modulated by varying the ratio of metal salt and extract in the reaction medium. Only 20 min were required for the conversion into gold nanoparticles at room temperature, suggesting a reaction rate higher or comparable to those of nanoparticles synthesis by chemical methods. The variation of the pH of the reaction medium gives AuNPs nanoparticles of different shapes. The nanoparticles obtained are characterized by UV–Vis spectroscopy, photoluminescence, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), FTIR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The TEM images showed that a mixture of shapes (triangular, hexagonal and spherical) structures was formed at lower leaf broth concentration and high pH, while smaller spherical shapes were obtained at higher leaf broth concentration and low pH.  相似文献

An environmentally benign method for the synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles has been reported using aqueous solution of gum kondagogu (Cochlospermum gossypium). Both the synthesis, as well as stabilization of colloidal Ag, Au and Pt nanoparticles has been accomplished in an aqueous medium containing gum kondagogu. The colloidal suspensions so obtained were found to be highly stable for prolonged period, without undergoing any oxidation. SEM–EDXA, UV–vis spectroscopy, XRD, FTIR and TEM techniques were used to characterize the Ag, Au and Pt nanoparticles. FTIR analysis indicates that –OH groups present in the gum matrix were responsible for the reduction of metal cations into nanoparticles. UV–vis studies showed a distinct surface plasmon resonance at 412 and 525 nm due to the formation of Au and Ag nanoparticles, respectively, within the gum network. XRD studies indicated that the nanoparticles were crystalline in nature with face centered cubic geometry. The noble metal nanoparticles prepared in the present study appears to be homogeneous with the particle size ranging between 2 and 10 nm, as evidenced by TEM analysis. The Ag and Au nanoparticles formed were in the average size range of 5.5 ± 2.5 nm and 7.8 ± 2.3 nm; while Pt nanoparticles were in the size range of 2.4 ± 0.7 nm, which were considerably smaller than Ag and Au nanoparticles. The present approach exemplifies a totally green synthesis using the plant derived natural product (gum kondagogu) for the production of noble metal nanoparticles and the process can also be extended to the synthesis of other metal oxide nanoparticles.  相似文献

A new and simple direct precipitation method assisted with ultrasonic agitation was proposed for the preparation of spherical ZnO nanoparticles. The size of the ZnO nanoparticles, 10 nm to 85 nm, was tuned through controlling the calcination temperature and changing the ratio of the reactants. The resonant light scattering (RLS) of the ZnO nanoparticles dispersed/suspended in aqueous solution of Triton X-100 was studied under room temperature. It was found that the ZnO nanoparticles of different size or concentration all have a characteristic RLS peak at 387 nm. Under optimal conditions, the RLS intensity was proportional to the ZnO concentration in the range of 7.3 × 10?8–1 × 10?4 mol L?1, while the cubic root of the RLS intensity was found to be proportional to the size of ZnO nanoparticles. Further, the quantitative relationship of the size of the ZnO nanoparticles versus the calcination temperature was derived, and this could be used to forecast/control the nano-size in the nano-ZnO preparation.  相似文献

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles were prepared by the thermal plasma synthesis; which give a highly crystalline product. Their morphological studies are carried out by using techniques like SEM, EDAX, TEM and SEAD. Crystal size was calculated by XRD using Scherrer equation; which is observed at two current amperes; at 80 A size ranges between 25 and 30 nm and at 120 A size ranges between 30 and 42 nm. Composition analysis was done by TEM–EDAX, FTIR and Fast Fourier Transform techniques. The FTIR peaks clearly show that synthesized TiO2 nanoparticles are in anatase phase; this phase is generally preferred because of its high photocatalytic activity, since it has a more negative conduction band edge potential (higher potential energy of photogenerated electrons), high specific area, nontoxic, photochemically stable and relatively in expensive.  相似文献

Nanoparticles of Ag, Pt and Pt–Ag were synthesized using ultrasonic irradiation with no consecutive thermal treatment to catalyze the oxygen reduction reaction. Metal nanoparticles are supported on carbon substrate. The synthesized materials were characterized by XRD, TEM, and cyclic and lineal voltammetry techniques. The kinetic formation of the metallic nanoparticles in solution was followed using UV–vis spectroscopy. The metal particles have crystalline structure and particle size with < 10 nm in size and in the form of spherical agglomerates. Ag/C exhibits lower electrochemical activity and stability for the ORR compared to Pt/C and Pt–Ag/C in acid medium. The mass and specific activity results demonstrate that the synthesized bimetallic sample exhibits 1.5 and 5 times greater electrochemical activities for the ORR compared to the commercial sample.  相似文献

Electrochemical techniques are widely used for the fabrication of nanostructured materials, yet a desired high-density nanoparticle arrays remains a challenge. Here large-area and high-density gold nanoparticle arrays with sub-10 nm gaps have been, for the first time, synthesized on Si(1 0 0) substrate within an electrochemical deposition system via the application of an unusually high over-potential. The extremely high over-potential contributes to the relatively small critical island size and high nucleation rate. It is believed that this method can be extended to the electrochemical fabrication nanoparticle arrays of other materials.  相似文献

The synthesis of short aspect ratio gold nanorods using gamma radiation method by incorporating cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) as a directing agent is reported in this communication. The radiolysis of Au+, in the presence of 2.5 nm Au seeds and 0.1 mol dm?3 isopropanol, results in the formation of Au spheres as evident from surface plasmon resonance band at 527 nm. However, by carrying out radiolysis at lower radiation dose rate, short aspect gold nanorods having surface plasmon bands at 513 and 670 nm have been prepared. The formation of rods at low radiation dose rate was observed to be governed by the kinetics of particle growth. The TEM of as-synthesized nanoparticles confirmed the formation of uniform sized nanorods having an aspect of 2.4.  相似文献

The chitosan-coated magnetic nanoparticles (CS MNPs) were prepared as carriers of 5-Fluorouracil (CS–5-Fu MNPs) through a reverse microemulsion method. The characteristics of CS–5-Fu MNPs were determined by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), FTIR spectroscopy and vibrating-sampling magnetometry (VSM). It was found that the synthesized CS–5-Fu MNPs were spherical in shape with an average size of 100 ± 20 nm, low aggregation and good magnetic responsivity. Meanwhile, the drug content and encapsulation rate of the nanoparticles was 16–23% and 60–92%, respectively. These CS–5-Fu MNPs also demonstrated sustained release of 5-Fu at 37 °C in different buffer solutions. The cytotoxicity of CS–5-Fu MNPs towards K562 cancer cells was investigated. The result showed that CS–5-Fu MNPs retained significant antitumor activities. Additionally, it was observed that the FITC-labeled CS–5-Fu MNPs could effectively enter into the SPCA-1 cancer cells and induced cell apoptosis.  相似文献

Pure and (0.5–3 at%) vanadium doped TiO2 nanoparticles have been synthesized by wet chemical method. The as synthesized materials have been characterized by using XRD, atomic force microscope (AFM), Raman, EPR and UV–vis spectroscopy techniques. From XRD studies, both pure as well as vanadium doped TiO2 have been found to show pure anatase phase. The value of lattice constant c is smaller in doped TiO2 as compared to undoped and has been found to decrease with increase in vanadium concentration. AFM studies show formation of spherical particles with particle size ~23 nm in all the samples. Photochromic behavior of these materials has been studied by making their films in alkyd resin. Vanadium doped TiO2 films show reversible change in color from beige-yellow to brownish violet on exposure to UV light. The mechanism of coloration and bleaching process has been discussed.  相似文献

The green synthesis of silver nanoparticles with the small size and high stability paved the way to improve and protect the environment by decreasing the use of toxic chemicals and eliminating biological risks in biomedical applications. Plant mediated synthesis of silver nanoparticles is gaining more importance owing its simplicity, rapid rate of synthesis of nanoparticles and eco-friendliness. In this study, focus on biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles using Polygonum hydropiper extract and its catalytic degradation of hazardous dye, methylene blue has been highlighted. The rapid reduction of silver (Ag) ions was monitored using UV-Visible spectrophotometer and showed formation of silver nanoparticles within less than one hour with maximum absorption of silver nanoparticles at 430 nm. The major functional groups present in the synthesis responsible for the formation of silver nanoparticles. It was identified by using Fourier Transform Infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR). Field Electron Scanning Microscope (FESEM) was used to characterise the nanoparticles synthesized using P.hydropiper. The morphology of silver nanoparticles was predominantly spherical and aggregated into irregular structure with average diameter of 60 nm. In addition, this report emphasizes the effect of the silver nanoparticles on the degradation rate of hazardous dyes by sodium borohydride (NaBH4). The efficiency of silver nanoparticles as a promising candidate for the catalysis of organic dyes by NaBH4 through the electron transfer process is established in the present study.  相似文献

We have observed size-reduction induced ferromagnetism and significant photo-magnetic effects in azobezene-thiol-modified gold nanoparticles. When the particle size was reduced to 1.7 nm, ferromagnetism even at room temperature was observed while diamagnetism was dominating with the particle size of 5.0 nm. Furthermore, reducing the particles size to 1.7 nm also gave rise to photo-magnetic properties because the decrease in particle size provided free volume between each of the azobenzene ligands. This photo-magnetic effect could be attributed to photo-induced changes in the values of d-charge losses due to the photoisomerization of azo-ligands, which were accompanied by the inversion of surface dipole values to the opposite sign.  相似文献

Silver nanoparticles were biosynthesized with the aid of a novel and eco-friendly biological material Torreya nucifera. Temperature and extract concentration were found to influence the size and shape of the biosynthesized silver nanoparticles. Morphological images of biosynthesized nanomaterials revealed that the particles are in spherical shape and size ranging between 10 and 125 nm. Crystalline nature of nanoparticles in face centered cubic (fcc) structure was ensured by diffraction pattern peaks corresponding to (1 1 1), (2 0 0), (2 2 0) and (3 1 1) planes. Characterization of the biosynthesized nanoparticles was performed by the X-ray diffraction and Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy analyses. FT-IR analysis indicates that nanoparticles are bound to proteins through amine groups of the aminoacid. Furthermore the biosynthesized nanoparticles were found to be highly effective against Salmonella typhimurium bacterium, which validates its potential applications as antibacterial agents in drinking water treatment and in food packagings.  相似文献

In this paper, a single-step room-temperature biosynthetic route for producing gold nanostructures using pear fruit is reported. The alkaline conditions of the pear fruit extract induced gold nanoparticles with plate-like morphologies. Successfully biosynthesized triangular and hexagonal nanoplates were observed, elegantly assembled with hexagonal gold nanoparticles. Nanostructure size, crystal nature, purity and morphologies were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX). The edge lengths of the nanostructures ranged from 200 to 500 nm. Using AFM analysis, the nanohexagons were observed to have a thickness ranging from 12 to 20 nm. The XRD patterns showed a (1 1 1) preferential orientation of the nanostructures. The XPS and EDAX analysis also confirmed the presence of pure-phase Au without any substantial impurities. The preparation of nanostructured gold particles using pear fruit provides an environmentally friendly option, as compared to currently available chemical and/or physical methods.  相似文献

In the present study, silver nanoparticles were rapidly synthesized at room temperature by treating silver ions with the Citrus limon (lemon) extract. The effect of various process parameters like the reductant concentration, mixing ratio of the reactants and the concentration of silver nitrate were studied in detail. In the standardized process, 10?2 M silver nitrate solution was interacted for 4 h with lemon juice (2% citric acid concentration and 0.5% ascorbic acid concentration) in the ratio of 1:4 (vol:vol). The formation of silver nanoparticles was confirmed by Surface Plasmon Resonance as determined by UV–Visible spectra in the range of 400–500 nm. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed the distinctive facets (1 1 1, 2 0 0, 2 2 0, 2 2 2 and 3 1 1 planes) of silver nanoparticles. We found that citric acid was the principal reducing agent for the nanosynthesis process. FT-IR spectral studies demonstrated citric acid as the probable stabilizing agent. Silver nanoparticles below 50 nm with spherical and spheroidal shape were observed from transmission electron microscopy. The correlation between absorption maxima and particle sizes were derived for different UV–Visible absorption maxima (corresponding to different citric acid concentrations) employing “MiePlot v. 3.4”. The theoretical particle size corresponding to 2% citric acid concentration was compared to those obtained by various experimental techniques like X-ray diffraction analysis, atomic force microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy.  相似文献
