Preparation of Cu nanoparticles with NaBH4 by aqueous reduction method

Cu nanoparticles were prepared by reducing Cu2+ ions with NaBH4 in alkaline solution. The effects of NaBH4 concentration and dripping rate on the formation of Cu nanoparticles were studied. The optimum conditions are found to be 0.2 mol/L Cu2+, solution with pH=12, temperature of 313 K and 1% gelati...

Zusammenfassung:Cu nanoparticles were prepared by reducing Cu2+ ions with NaBH4 in alkaline solution. The effects of NaBH4 concentration and dripping rate on the formation of Cu nanoparticles were studied. The optimum conditions are found to be 0.2 mol/L Cu2+, solution with pH=12, temperature of 313 K and 1% gelatin as dispersant, to which 0.4 mol/L NaBH4 is added at a dripping rate of 50 mL/min. NH3·H2O is found to be the optimal complexant to form the Cu precursor. A series experiments were conducted to study the reaction process at different time points.
