“…XRD analysis indicated that these particles were cubic in nature. Raman spectra presented that the higher the concentration of the bimetals on the surface, the better the degree of graphitization . Silica–alumina can be used to synthesize silver nanoparticles with precursors like Ag 2 O or AgNO 3 .…”

“…Raman spectra presented that the higher the concentration of the bimetals on the surface, the better the degree of graphitization. 38 Silica−alumina can be used to synthesize silver nanoparticles with precursors like Ag 2 O or AgNO 3 . By coupling MW-plasma with fluidized bed technologies, the precursors could be decomposed and evaporated; the ensuing nanoparticles were spread over the support in a uniform manner.…”

The use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) is gaining in popularity due to silver's antibacterial properties. Conventional methods for AgNP synthesis require dangerous chemicals and large quantities of energy (heat) and can result in formation of hazardous byproducts. This article summarizes recent activity in this general area where environmentally friendly synthetic techniques are currently being explored for the synthesis of "greener" AgNPs including the use of plant extracts, biodegradable polymers, and enzymes/bacteria and alternative energy input systems, such as microwave irradiation. Microwave heating enables efficient formation of nanostructures of uniform small sizes in shorter reaction times with reduced energy consumption; preventing agglomeration of ensuing nanoparticles is an additional attribute.
