Abstract

The silver colloidal solutions were performed by chemical and electrochemical methods. Depending on the chosen method, the AgNp concentration was varied between 7.5 and 100 ppm. The optical absorption spectra were registered for all the samples in the range 190-1100 nm. Particle’s shape and size were determined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Stabilizing agents were used to obtain a good dispersion of particles..

Keywords

Silver colloidal solutions, Zeta potential, TEM, UV-VIS spectra.
