Influence of UV radiation intensity on silver nanoparticle synthesis by cavitation-diffusion photochemical reduction
摘要
The paper proposes the mathematical model for the synthesis process of silver nanoparticle using the cavitation-diffusion photochemical reduction method. The influence of the ultraviolet (UV) radiation power on the initial concentration of the silver ammine complex on the nanoparticles size and synthesis rate is studied, and computational results are compared with the experimental data. It is found that the reduced UV radiation power increases the synthesis rate, while changes in the initial concentration of the silver ammine complex affect the size of silver particles.
