AbstractThe BMIM+NO3-/Ag metal nanocomposite membranes were utilized for separation of propylene/propane mixtures. The selectivity of propylene/propane and the mixed gas permeance increased to 10 and 1.3 GPU, respectively. It is anticipated that the interactions between NO3- of BMIM+NO3- and the surface of silver nanoparticles causes the Ag surface to be partially positively charged, resulting in the reversible complexation with propylene and consequently facilitated propylene transport. The surface positive charge was confirmed from the increase in the binding energy of the d5/2 orbital of the silver nanoparticles by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It increased from 368.26 for the neat silver nanoparticles to 368.47 eV for BMIM+NO3-/Ag metal composite. The positively charged surface of silver nanoparticles can be utilized as a new durable olefin carrier for facilitated transport.

Surface-enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) fiber probe provides abundant interaction area between light and materials, permits detection within limited space and is especially useful for remote or in situ detection. A silver decorated SERS fiber optic probe was prepared by hydrothermal method. This method manages to accomplish the growth of silver nanoparticles and its adherence on fiber optic tip within one step, simplifying the synthetic procedure. The effects of reaction time on phase composition, surface plasmon resonance property and morphology were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum (UV-VIS absorption spectrum) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that when reaction time is prolonged from 4–8 hours at 180 °C, crystals size and size distribution of silver nanoparticles increase. Furthermore, the morphology, crystal size and distribution density of silver nanoparticles evolve along with reaction time. A growth mechanism based on two factors, equilibrium between nucleation and growth, and the existence of PVP, is hypothesized. The SERS fiber probe can detect rhodamin 6G (R6G) at the concentration of 10−6 M. This SERS fiber probe exhibits promising potential in organic dye and pesticide residue detection.

Silver nanoplates (SNPs) having different size were synthesized by a seed-mediated method. The seeds -silver nanoparticles with 4 – 6 nm diameters were synthesized first by reducing silver nitrate with sodium borohydride in the present of Trisodium Citrate and Hydrogen peroxide. Then these seeds were developed by continue reducing Ag\(^+\) ions with various amount of L-Ascorbic acid to form SNPs. Our analysis showed that the concentratrion of L-Ascorbic acid, a secondary reducing agent, played an important role to form SNPs. In addition, the size and in-plane dipole plasmon resonance wavelenght of silver nanoplates were increased when the concentration of added silver nitrate increased. The characterization of SNPs were studied by UV-Vis, FE-SEM, EDS and TEM methods.
