in this work, ag-cu nanoparticles (with different percentages of copper, 10%, 25%, 50%, 75% cu) were synthesized by wet chemical method. copper(ii) sulfate and silver nitrate were taken as metal precursors, ascorbic acid as reducing agent and anhydride maleic (ma) as a modifier. the prepared nanoparticles were characterized by means of x-ray diffraction (xrd) technique and scanning electron mic...
