Kinetics of the Interaction between Thio-Compounds and Triangular Silver Nanoplates in an Aqueous Solution

Abstract

Kinetic features of the interaction between thiocompounds differing in functional groups with triangular silver nanoplates in an aqueous solution are studied. Such interaction results in the aggregation of nanoplates, accompanied by a change in the absorption spectra of their solutions. The behavior of the systems is characterized using kinetic models of the zero–third order. Constants of aggregation are calculated for the selected models. The effect the structure of the thio compound has on the aggregation of triangular silver nanoplates is shown, and reasons for this effect are proposed.
