A new electronic device has been assembled and employed to obtain a stable solution of spherical uncoated silver nanoparticles (SNPs) in only 10 min. Time of current inversion phase, number of electrodes and purification procedure have been optimized; different techniques as UV–vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), dynamic laser light scattering (DLS) have been carried out to characterize the SNPs in size, shape and morphology. The stability of the SNPs solution has been tested by Zeta-Potential measurements. The results presented herein show that the obtained nanoparticles kept in the dark at 5 °C under inert atmosphere remain stable for at least 1 month.

Abstract
A new electronic device has been assembled and employed to obtain a stable solution of spherical uncoated silver nanoparticles (SNPs) in only 10 min. Time of current inversion phase, number of electrodes and purification procedure have been optimized; different techniques as UV–vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), dynamic laser light scattering (DLS) have been carried out to characterize the SNPs in size, shape and morphology. The stability of the SNPs solution has been tested by Zeta-Potential measurements. The results presented herein show that the obtained nanoparticles kept in the dark at 5 °C under inert atmosphere remain stable for at least 1 month.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
