Effect of AgNO3 addition rate on aspect ratio of CuCl2–mediated synthesized silver nanowires using response surface methodology

摘要: Abstract Nanomaterials have size-dependant properties which are important in their field of application. In this study response surface methodology (RSM) was successfully used to consider the effects AgNO3 addition rate and Cl− concentration on aspect ratio silver nanowires synthesized via polyol method; most commonly applied method for synthesizing metallic nanoparticles. Moreover, a suitable model relationship between factors (AgNO3 concentration) (aspect ratio) statistically developed. Based statistical analysis, it shown that first order these two same significance nanowires; while, second term has much higher effect compared concentration. Furthermore, interaction significant. It found when is lower than 1.05 mM, formed remarkably low regardless studied range. by use proposed polynomial model, optimum values were estimated obtaining with fairly high (∼100).
