Effect of reducing agents types - on the synthesis of silver nanoparticles

In recent years, metal nanoparticles such as silver have been studied extensively due to their unique properties that are significantly different from those of bulk material. In this study, silver nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical reduction method with different type and concentration of re...
