We have used Lithium Aluminum Hydroxide reducing method of silver nitrate to prepare heterogeneous silver-silica nanocomposite particles with thiol and amino groups serving to bind the Ag nanoparticles to the surfaces of the SiO2 nanoparticles. We examined products of these reductions using FTIR, SEM, XRD and UV-vis. spectroscopy. The SiO2 nanoparticles had diameters ranging from […]
