Getting Greener with the Synthesis of Nanoparticles and Nanomaterials.

34684956 8 Hassanisaadi M., Bonjar G.H.S., Rahdar A., Pandey S., Hosseinipour A., Abdolshahi R. Environmentally Safe Biosynthesis of Gold Nanoparticles Using Plant Water Extracts. The authors studied the effect of polymeric stabilizers on gold nanoparticle size and activity in hydrogenation of 4-nitrophenol. The catalytic activity of metallic nanoparticles is very often governed by the method of preparation, which determines the particle size and structure of nanoparticles. [Extracted from the article]
