Synthesis of Antibacterially ActiveSilver Nanoparticles by Galvanic Replacement on Magnesium in Solutions of Sodium Polyacrylate in an Ultrasound

“Green” synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by a galvanic replacement (GR) on magnesium in solutions of sodium polyacrylate (NaPA) under ultrasound (42 kHz) is reported. The mechanism of combined action of GR and ultrasound on the formation of nanoparticles is proposed. Synthesized solutions of AgNPs are characterized by an absorption maximum at 410 nm, the value of which does not depend on the concentrations of precursors (AgNO₃ and NaPA) and the duration of the process. The dimensions of nanoparticles that have a spherical shape do not exceed 30 nm.

INFLUENCE OF ULTRASOUND ON THE SYNTHESIS OF SILVER NANOPARTICLES BY GALVANIC REPLACEMENT IN SODIUM POLYACRYLATE SOLUTIONS

Sonogalvanic replacement and galvanic replacement synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by magnesium scrap in sodium polyacrylate solutions were studied. It was found that during these processes in NaPA solutions silver is practically not deposited on the magnesium surface. Sodium polyacrylate provides stabilization of AgNPs with the formation of yellow solutions with maximum absorption of ~415 nm.
