Glucose-mediated catalysis of Au nanoparticles in microgels.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The catalytic activity of Au nanoparticles in phenylboronic acid-containing polymer microgels can be tuned through the swelling-deswelling transition of the microgels in response to changes in glucose concentration. Upon adding glucose, the model catalytic reduction of hydrophilic 4-nitrophenol is accelerated, while the reduction of relatively more hydrophobic nitrobenzene slows down.

Interaction of gold nanoparticles with thermoresponsive microgels: influence of the cross-linker density on optical properties.
The interaction of spherical gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) with microgels composed of chemically cross-linked poly-(N-isopropylacrylamide) is reported. Simple mixing of the two components leads to adsorption of the gold particles onto the microgels. Different loading densities can be achieved by varying the ratio of gold particles to microgel particles. The adsorption of gold nanoparticles is ana...
متن کاملAu, Ag and Au-Ag nanoparticles: microwave-assisted synthesis in water and applications in ceramic and catalysis
A simple, microwave-assisted route for producing Au/Ag concentred sols by glucose reduction in water was developed. Ag-Au bimetallic nanoparticles stabilized by polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were characterized and their catalytic activity was studied in the reduction of 4nitrophenol (4-NP) with NaBH4. Moreover they were tested as red ceramic inks for ink-jet printing technology. Since the research...
متن کاملNanocomposites of size-controlled gold nanoparticles and graphene oxide: formation and applications in SERS and catalysis.
In this paper, we describe the formation of Au nanoparticle-graphene oxide (Au-GO) and -reduced GO (Au-rGO) composites by noncovalent attachment of Au nanoparticles premodified with 2-mercaptopyridine to GO and rGO sheets, respectively, viaπ-π stacking and other molecular interactions. Compared with in situ reduction of HAuCl4 on the surface of graphene sheets that are widely used to prepare Au...
متن کاملCatalytically active gold on ordered titania supportsw
Almost two decades have passed since supported Au nanoparticles were found to be active for CO oxidation. This discovery inspired extensive research addressing the origin of the unique properties of supported Au nanoparticles, the design and synthesis of potentially technical Au catalysts, and the extension of Au catalysis to other reactions. This tutorial review summarises the current understa...
متن کاملBienzyme functionalized three-layer composite magnetic nanoparticles for electrochemical immunosensors.
The preparation, characterization and application of a three-layer magnetic nanoparticle composed of an Fe(3)O(4) magnetic core, a Prussian Blue (PB) interlayer and a gold shell (it can be abbreviated as Au-PB-Fe(3)O(4)) for an ultrasensitive and reproducible electrochemical immunosensing fabrication were described for the first time in this work. With the employment of the Au-PB-Fe(3)O(4) nano...
