Book Process Optimization for the Synthesis of Gold Nanoparticles from a Mixed Metal Precursor Solution

Download or read book Process Optimization for the Synthesis of Gold Nanoparticles from a Mixed Metal Precursor Solution written by Kathryn Ann Dill and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Separation methods involving a mixture of metals typically include upfront processing that leads to one final product. To lower the waste and ultimately environmental burden, the potential to synthesize multiple functional products from a mixed metal precursor solution is explored. The initial precursor solutions contained varying ratios of gold and copper, gold and nickel, and finally a ternary solution of gold, copper, and nickel. The amount of gold was kept constant, while the amount of copper and/or nickel was sequentially increased. Two separate synthesis processes were tested, the traditional Turkevich method involving trisodium citrate and another chemical reduction method involving sodium borohydride. The particle size and chemical composition of the synthesized particles were characterized using TEM, DLS and ICP-OES. It was determined that gold nanoparticles still formed at a ratio of 1 to 2 gold to copper while using trisodium citrate or sodium borohydride as the reducing agent. The same limiting ratio was observed for the gold to nickel reactions in the presence of either trisodium citrate or sodium borohydride. The ternary mixture limit for gold nanoparticle formation was a molar ratio of 1 to 1 to 1 gold to copper to nickel. The repeatability and stability results for the optimized binary reaction conditions indicate that using sodium borohydride as the reducing agent consistently produces more stable particle suspensions. Quantifying the environmental impact using green chemistry metrics indicate the Turkevich reactions for the optimized reactions have the lower environmental factors.

Book Catalytic Application of Nano Gold Catalysts

Download or read book Catalytic Application of Nano Gold Catalysts written by Neeraj Kumar Mishra and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2016-08-31 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gold, considered catalytically inactive for a long time, is now a fascinating partner of modern chemistry, as scientists such as Bond, Teles, Haruta, Hutchings, Ito and Hayashi opened new perspectives for the whole synthetic chemist community. Recently gold has attracted significant attention due to its advantageous characteristics as a catalytic material and since it allows easy functionalization with biologically active molecules. In this context, when gold is prepared as very small particles, it turns out to be a highly active catalyst. However, such a phenomenon completely disappears when the gold particle size grows into the micrometer range. Therefore, the preparation for obtaining an active gold catalyst is so important. The primary objective of this book is to provide a comprehensive overview of gold metal nanoparticles and their application as promising catalysts.

  • ISBN : 1908979852
  • Pages : 383 pages

Download or read book Catalysis By Gold written by Geoffrey C Bond and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2006-08-15 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gold has traditionally been regarded as inactive as a catalytic metal. However, the advent of nanoparticulate gold on high surface area oxide supports has demonstrated its high catalytic activity in many chemical reactions. Gold is active as a heterogeneous catalyst in both gas and liquid phases, and complexes catalyse reactions homogeneously in solution. Many of the reactions being studied will lead to new application areas for catalysis by gold in pollution control, chemical processing, sensors and fuel cell technology. This book describes the properties of gold, the methods for preparing gold catalysts and ways to characterise and use them effectively in reactions. The reaction mechanisms and reasons for the high activities are discussed and the applications for gold catalysis considered./a

Book Synthesis of Gold Nanoparticles Using PH Control and Ultrasonication

Download or read book Synthesis of Gold Nanoparticles Using PH Control and Ultrasonication written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gold nanoparticle is a nanomaterial drawing many research attentions because it could exhibit distinctive properties, which are different from its bulk. Optical property is the most interesting aspect because it is strongly dependence on size of gold nanoparticles which could be controlled by many parameters. Though gold nanoparticles could be synthesized by various methods, liquid-phase reduction method is recognized as one of the most potential method because it consumes less energy and uses simple apparatus. Hence this research sets its aim at investigating the dependence of gold nanoparticle size on the molar ratio of precursor and reducing agent, total concentration of precursors, reaction temperature, sonication power and pH. Based on our experimental results, size of gold nanoparticle was strongly dependent on the molar ratio of precursor (HAuCl[subscript 4]) to reducing agent (Na[subscript 3]C[subscript 6]H[subscript 5]O[subscript 7]), total concentration of precursors and reaction temperature while sonication power could provide insignificant effect on the size of gold nanoparticles. Moreover, size and stability of gold nanoparticles could be controlled by adjusting pH of solution. Regarding to electrical property, gold nanoparticle is another alternative for using as ozone sensor. In this research, it was experimentally found that adsorption of ozone molecules on gold nanoparticles film caused a change of electrical resistance of gold nanoparticles.
