Silica-coated Silver Nanoparticles Description
Silica-coated Silver Nanoparticles are a type of nanomaterial that comprise a silver nanoparticle core enveloped by a protective silica shell. This configuration enhances the inherent properties of silver nanoparticles by improving their stability, protecting them from oxidation, and offering the potential for surface functionalization. Moreover, the silica shell's biocompatibility makes these nanoparticles ideal for various applications, including electronics, catalysis, biomedicine (such as drug delivery and antimicrobial uses), and sensing technologies.
