Abstract:

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 with an average size that is tunable between 1.93 and 119 nm by varying the gold ion concentration, HPMo dose (or molar ratio of gold ion to HPMo) and Propan-2-ol amount. We have found that there is a critical ratio for [Au3+]/[HPMo], in which two opposing trends in the size of gold nanoparticles would happened.

Size-controlled and Green Synthesis of Metal Nanoparticles Using Molybdophosphoric Acid

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...

comparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.

heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...

Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Mentha aquatic L Extract as the Reducing Agent

Background: Developing effective methods for the synthesis of bio-compatible and non-toxic nanoparticles is the main goal of nanotechnology. In the most chemical methods, a chemical reducing agent is used to reduce metal ions. But, in chemical methods, the stability of nanoparticles is controversial and synthesis in large sizes is much more difficult. Moreover, there is an incr...

Experimental investigations of behaviour of rhamnolipid biosurfactants as a green stabilizer for the biological synthesis of gold nanoparticles

Use of biosurfactants as a green stabilizer for the biological synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) is now emerging as nontoxic and environmentally acceptable "green chemistry" procedures. Stability of AuNPs at different pHs is very important because our body has different pHs. This paper addresses this issue. In this work, first P. aeruginosa PTCC 13401 was used to produce rhamnolipid biosu...
