Synthesis of Platinum Nanoparticles by Gamma Co-60 Ray Irradiation Method Using Chitosan as Stabilizer
Platinum nanoparticles were synthesized using the gamma-ray irradiation as a reducing factor and chitosan as a stabilizer. The prepared platinum nanoparticles were characterized using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Fourier-transform infrared sp...

| Summary: | Platinum nanoparticles were synthesized using the gamma-ray irradiation as a reducing factor and chitosan as a stabilizer. The prepared platinum nanoparticles were characterized using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The saturated conversion dose to reduce the Pt4+ to Pt0 was found to be about 14 kGy for initial Pt4+ concentration of 1 mM. The size of the platinum nanoparticles (1.4–1.6 nm) did almost not change with the increase of chitosan concentration from 0.5 to 2.0%. Thus, gamma Co-60 ray irradiation method is favorable for synthesizing PtNPs with the small sizes. |
