Preparation of Silver Nanoparticles in a Plasma-Liquid System in the Presence of PVA: Antimicrobial, Catalytic, and Sensing Properties
The preparation of stabilized silver nanodispersions under the action of short-term plasma discharge using a polyvinyl alcohol stabilizer (polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)) was investigated. The influence of the basic technological parameters such as initial Ag+ concentration, PVA concentration, and process...
