Copper Nanoparticle in Cationized Palm Oil Fibres: Physic-Chemical Investigation

At ambient atmospheric condition copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) were prepared in aqueous medium using copper chloride, sodium borohydride, ascorbic acid and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) of two different molecular weights (M ws). The physical appearance of the prepared sol of CuNPs has been found to be stab...
