Synthesis of silver leaves and their potential application for analysis and degradation of phenolic pollutants by Jianan Sun, Xianhui Gao, Wei Wei

“…Abstract A one‐pot bottom‐up synthesis method was used to synthesise multi‐level leaf‐like nano‐silver (silver leaf) by simply mixing AgNO3, L‐ascorbic acid, Sodium sodium citrate, and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in the ethanol‐water mixed solvents. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) characterisations show that the silver leaves have tertiary structures and their sizes are controllable. …”
