SYNTHESIS AND STUDY OF THE STRUCTURE OF Pd AND Mn NANOPARTICLES IN THE PRESENCE OF POLYVINYLPYRROLIDONE

Abstract

Poly-N-vinylpyrrolidone is widely used among synthetic polymers due to its non-toxicity and solubility in water and other organic solvents. Complex compounds with metals and non-metals find widespread application in various fields of industry and medicine. The purpose of this study is to synthesize metal-polymer complexes for obtaining a new type of catalyst. Poly-N-vinylpyrrolidone was first dissolved in water and then re-mixed with the addition of the PdCl2 salt. A reducing agent was added to the solution, and finally the resulting substance was established by means of a binder. The same process was typical for MnCl2 salt. Complexes obtained studied by various research methods (FTIR, XRD, SEM, UV-Vis). Proceeding from the results of the research methods, we can say that the construction process was successful and the metal nanoparticles settled on the surface and inside the polymer. The obtained complex compounds are intended to be used as catalysts
