Size-controlled and Green Synthesis of Metal Nanoparticles Using Molybdophosphoric Acid
نویسندگان
چکیده
Green synthesis of silver and gold nanoparticles as two metal nanoparticles, was studied based on photoreduction of metal ions using molybdophosphoric acid (H3[PMo12O40], HPMo) under UV-irradiation. HPMo was found to be photocatalyst, reducing agent and efficient stabilizer for the resulting nanoparticles. This method allows the size-controlled synthesis of uniform nanoparticles with an average size that is tunable by varying the initial used HPMo amount. We have found that there is a critical value for HPMo amount, in which two opposing trends in the size of metal nanoparticles would happen. This value is depends on the type of metal and reaction conditions and for Au NPs it is higher than that of Ag NPs. Key-Words: Metal; Nanoparticle; Polyoxometalate; Molybdophosphoric acid; UV irradiation.

Application of Molybdophosphoric Acid as Reducing Agent/ Stabilizer in the Synthesis of Gold Nanoparticles under UV Irradiation
In this paper, we have described the size-controlled synthesis of gold nanoparticles based on the reduction of Au3+ (HAuCl4 ) using molybdophosphoric acid (H3[PMo12O40 ], HPMo) under UV-irradiation. In the process, HPMo plays the role of photocatalyst, reducing agent and stabilizer and propan-2-ol acts as a sacrificial agent. This method allows the synthesis of uniform hexagonal nanoparticles w...
