Silver Nanoparticle Dispersion

Image retrieved from: Silver nanoparticles can be incorporated into products such as photovoltaics, biological and chemical sensors due to its unique optical, electrical and thermal properties. Silver nanoparticles have high electrical conductivity, stability and low sintering temperature so they are used conductive inks, pastes and fillers. Additionally, due to their high novel optical properties, they are preferred as novel material for the molecular diagnostics and photonic devices. Depending on size and shape of the nanoparticles, Silver nanoparticles can absorb and scatter light. Common application area of silver nanoparticles is resulted from their antibacterial natures. Therefore, in many textiles, keyboards, wound dressing and biomedical devices, low level of silver ions can provide a protection against bacteria. To optimize performance of silver nanoparticles applied into a target, their size, shape, surface and aggregation status are important parameters. Dispersed Sil...
