The versatile one-pot green synthesis of a highly concentrated and stable colloidal dispersion of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) was carried out using the self-assembled tannic acid without using any other hazardous chemicals. Tannic acid (Plant-based polyphenol) was used as a reducing and stabilizing agent for silver nitrate in a mild alkaline condition. The synthesized Ag NPs were characterized for their concentration, capping, size distribution, and shape. The experimental results confirmed the successful synthesis of nearly spherical and highly concentrated (2281 ppm) Ag NPs, capped with poly-tannic acid (Ag NPs-PTA). The average particle size of Ag NPs-PTA was found to be 9.90 ± 1.60 nm. The colloidal dispersion of synthesized nanoparticles was observed to be stable for more than 15 months in the ambient environment (25 °C, 65% relative humidity). The synthesized AgNPs-PTA showed an effective antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus Aureus (ZOI 3.0 mM) and Escherichia coli (ZOI 3.5 mM). Ag NPs-PTA also exhibited enhanced catalytic properties. It reduces 4-nitrophenol into 4-aminophenol in the presence of NaBH4 with a normalized rate constant (Knor = K/m) of 615.04 mL·s−1·mg−1. For comparison, bare Ag NPs show catalytic activity with a normalized rate constant of 139.78 mL·s−1·mg−1. Furthermore, AgNPs-PTA were stable for more than 15 months under ambient conditions. The ultra-high catalytic and good antimicrobial properties can be attributed to the fine size and good aqueous stability of Ag NPs-PTA. The unique core-shell structure and ease of synthesis render the synthesized nanoparticles superior to others, with potential for large-scale applications, especially in the field of catalysis and medical.

In this research, a thermo-sensitive copolymer PNIPAAm-co-MHq was used to successfully synthesize different nano sizes silver nanoparticles in the ranges between 1.5 to 4 nm with uniform dispersion. The polymeric assisted synthesized Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs@PM) exhibited reasonable solution stability and thermalresponsive behaviour. In specific, AgNPs@PM3 (1.59 nm) displayed improved bacterial resistance against clinically approved anti-biotic resistant bacterial pathigens with very low MIC value (4.05 μg/mL). Subsequently, the thermal responsive polymeric molecular structure on AgNPs synthesis has been established that significant temperature dependened anti-bacterial efficiency. It was also observed that the nonparticipants size, temperature responses and proportion of thermosensitive copolymer also influenced the antibacterial efficacy of AgNPs@PM. Resulting thermal sensitive polymer nanocomposite can be extremely beneficial for wound healing treatment after femoral fracture surgery.
