The present report describes a comparative study on chemical synthesis of processable Prussian blue Nanoparticles (PBNPs) suitable for developing PB-based devices. Controlled nucleation of PBNP from single precursors, Potassium hexacyanoferrate, has been recorded as a function of reducing and stabilizing ability of some active organic reducing agents. The use of organic reagent control the nucleation process yielding PBNPs displaying both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. Four different systems of active organic reducing agents i.e.: (1) 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (3-APTMS) and cyclohexanone, (2) tetrahydrofuran hydroperoxide, (3) tetrahydrofuran and hydrogen peroxide and (4) tetrahydrofuran hydroperoxide and 2-(3, 4-epoxycyclohexyl) ethyltrimethoxysilane resulted the formation of PBNP1, PBNP2, PBNP3 and PBNP4 displaying sensitivity of analysis to the order of 480, 330 350 and 400 mA mM-1 cm-2 respectively.The as reported process also enable the controlled synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles introducing new rout for yielding Prussian blue-noble metal nanoparticle nanocomposite that manipulate the catalytic/elecrocatalytic activity for targeted system. As made PBNPs undergo the formation of homogeneous nanodispersion with gold nanoparticles and ruthenium bipyridyl with gradual enhancement in the catalytic activity. The typical application in probing glucose oxidase catalyzed reaction based on both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis has been recorded. In addition the synthetic approach could also be explored to incorporate Prussian blue and palladium nanoparticles in mesoporous matrix for developing variety of PB-based devices.

ABSTRACTWe report herein a facile approach to synthesize processable bimetallic nanoparticles (Pd-Au/AuPd/Ag-Au/Au-Ag) decorated Prussian blue nanocomposite (PB-AgNP). The presence of cyclohexanone/formaldehyde facilitates the formation of functional bimetallic nanoparticles from 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (3-APTMS) capped desired ratio of hetero noble metal ions. The use of 3-APTMS and cyclohexanone also enables the synthesis of polycrystalline Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs). As synthesized PBNPs, Pd-Au/Au-Pd/Ag-Au/Au-Ag enable the formation of nano-structured composites displaying better catalytic activity than that recorded with natural enzyme. The nanomaterials have been characterized by Uv-Vis, FT-IR and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) with following major findings: (1) 3-APTMS capped noble metal ions in the presence of suitable organic reducing agents i.e.; 3 glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS), cyclohexanone and formaldehyde; are converted into respective nanoparticles under ambient conditions, (2) the time course of synthesis and dispersibility of the nanoparticles are found as a function of organic reducing agents, (3) the use of formaldehyde and cyclohexanone in place of GPTMS with 3-APTMS outclasses the other two in imparting better stability of amphiphilic nanoparticles with reduced silanol content, (4) simultaneous synthesis of bimetallic nanoparticles under desired ratio of palladium/gold and silver/ gold cations are recorded, (5) the nanoparticles made from the use of 3-APTMS and cyclohexanone enable the formation of homogeneous nanocomposite with PBNP as peroxidase mimetic representing potential substitute of peroxidase enzyme. The peroxidase mimetic ability has been found to vary as a function of 3-APTMS concentration revealing the potential role of functional metal nanoparticles in bioanalytical applications.

ABSTRACTSynthesis of functional noble metal nanoparticles (AuNPs, AgNPs, and PdNPs) and its multi-metallic analogues have received greater attentions for selective applications. The selective applications of the these nanoparticles essentially requires the processability of as synthesized nanoparticles in the medium of desired polarity index that manifest the potential exploration of nanomaterial based design in targeted area. The use of conventional reducing and stabilizing agents during routine synthesis of such nanoparticles are not suitable with the system of practical significance and require additional reagents that limit the optimum activity of nanomaterial in targeted design. According there is a challenging issue in the synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles that allow the controlled synthesis of such nanoparticles involving same starting material with option to control the processability of as generated nanomaterial in the system of desired polarity index. The present report is focused on such challenging issues. We have found that 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (3-APTMS) capped noble metal cations can be precisely converted into respective monometallic, bimetallic and trimetallic analogues and can be made processable in water at one end having controlled option to reversed the processability of the same in the toluene as a function of small organic reducing agents. The organic reducing agents not only convert 3-APTMS-capped noble cations into respective nanoparticles but also control the processability of the as generated nanoparticles in the systems of desired polarity index. The similar process also allows the synthesis of function bimetallic and tri-metallic nanoparticles. The role of cyclohexanone, formaldehyde and acetone in the presence of 3-APTMS is reported.

AbstractNoble metals have played an integral part in human history for centuries; however, their integration with recent advances in nanotechnology and material sciences have provided new research opportunities in both academia and industry, which has resulted in a new array of advanced applications, including medical ones. Noble metal nanoparticles (NMNPs) have been of great importance in the field of biomedicine over the past few decades due to their importance in personalized healthcare and diagnostics. In particular, platinum, gold and silver nanoparticles have achieved the most dominant spot in the list, thanks to a very diverse range of industrial applications, including biomedical ones such as antimicrobial and antiviral agents, diagnostics, drug carriers and imaging probes. In particular, their superior resistance to extreme conditions of corrosion and oxidation is highly appreciated. Notably, in the past two decades there has been a tremendous advancement in the development of new strategies of more cost-effective and robust NMNP synthesis methods that provide materials with highly tunable physicochemical, optical and thermal properties, and biochemical functionalities. As a result, new advanced hybrid NMNPs with polymer, graphene, carbon nanotubes, quantum dots and core–shell systems have been developed with even more enhanced physicochemical characteristics that has led to exceptional diagnostic and therapeutic applications. In this review, we aim to summarize current advances in the synthesis of NMNPs (Au, Ag and Pt).

TiO 2 nanobelts have been fabricated through a hydrothermal method and subsequently sulfuric-acid-corrosion-treated for a rough surface. Noble metal nanoparticles such as Ag and Au were deposited on the coarse surface of TiO 2 nanobelts via a coprecipitation procedure. Ag – TiO 2 nanobelts were prepared in ethanolic solution contained silver nitrate ( AgNO 3) and sodium hydroxide ( NaOH ). Au – TiO 2 nanobelts were obtained in chloroauric acid ( HAuCl 4) using sodium borohydride ( NaBH 4) as the reductant. It is confirmed by the results of XRD patterns together with the SEM images that the composite of noble metal and TiO 2 nanobelts were obtained successfully and the Ag or Au nanoparticles were well-dispersed on the TiO 2 nanobelts. Moreover, the as-prepared Ag and Au nanoparticle-decorated TiO 2 nanobelts represent an enhanced photocatalytic activity compared with pure TiO 2 nanobelts, which is due to the fact that the Ag and Au nanoparticles on the surface of TiO 2 nanobelts act as sinks for the photogenerated electrons and promote the separation of the electrons and holes.

Applications of various noble metal nanoparticles were investigated for newly, ecology and economy home electric appliances (microwave, ultrasonic) used system. Noble metal oxides have merit in metal particles fabrication, as one of these example example, there are decomposed by only heating in air. That is, noble metal oxide don't use strong reduction atmosphere. This reduction is ecologically clean, because many noble metal oxides are not toxic and during decomposition O2 is evolved. We have reduced noble metal oxides by microwave and ultrasound, and tried to fabricate noble metal nanoparticles, and investigated various processing. These energy are widely used by home electric appliances. By choosing suitable process and conditions, it is reasonable to expect that home electric appliances ecology and economy fabrications can be extended to obtain simply various noble metal nanoparticles related materials.

metal nanoparticles have been used to address these diseases in the brain, however very few of these formulations have made it through clinical trials. This review will be discussing the role of noble metal nanoparticles as drug delivery systems specifically to the brain. A common problem many researchers and clinical physicians are facing problems because they are unable to access the brain without highly invasive surgery. Nanoparticles allow access to the brain without invasive surgery. Noble metal nanoparticles (NMNPs) are of particular interest because of their inherent characteristics which are amplified or reduced by ligands. The various ligands available change the method of transportation for a NMNPs traveling through the blood barrier. We will examine various ligands and their benefits and potential drawbacks. Furthermore, the optimal usage for each ligand and associated nanoparticle will also be examined. This review will go into detail about pure noble metal nanoparticle, glucose, PEG, CTAB, Transferrin, Anti-Microbial Peptide, and Chitosan as coatings. All of these are commonly used among researchers. The absorptivity into various cell types in the brain along with future implications will be examined.

The wafer-level integration of high aspect ratio silicon nanostructures is an essential part of the fabrication of nanodevices. Metal-assisted chemical etching (MACE) is a promising low-cost and high-volume technique for the generation of vertically aligned silicon nanowires. Noble metal nanoparticles were used to locally etch the silicon substrate. This work demonstrates a bottom-up self-assembly approach for noble metal nanoparticle formation and the subsequent silicon wet etching. The macroscopic wafer patterning has been done by using a poly(methyl methacrylate) masking layer. Different metals (Au, Pt, Pd, Cu, and Ir) were investigated to derive a set of technologies as platform for specific applications. Especially, the shape of the 3D structures and the resulting reflectance have been investigated. The Si nanostructures fabricated using Au nanoparticles show a perfect light absorption with a reflectance below 0.3%. The demonstrated technology can be integrated into common fabrication processes for microelectromechanical systems.
