General description
Silver nitrate (AgNO3) is commonly used as a precursor to many other silver compounds.
Application
Silver nitrate is used as a precursor in the preparation of:
- Highly sensitive silver colloids.
- Chitosan silver nanocomposite (CSN) films.
- Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), using sodium borohydride (NaBH4) as a reducing agent and polyethylene glycol (PEG) as stabilizing agent.
