Synthesis of core–shell nanoparticles with a Pt nanoparticle core and a silica shell
2013
Oh, Jong-Gil | Kim, Hansung
A method to prepare a core–shell structure consisting of a Pt metal core coated with a silica shell (Pt(in)SiO₂) is described herein. A silica shell was grown on poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP)-stabilized Pt nanoparticles 2–3 nm in size through hydrolysis and condensation reactions of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) in a water/ethanol mixture with ammonia as a catalyst. This process requires precise control of the reaction conditions to avoid the formation of silica particles containing multiple Pt cores and core-free silica. The length of PVP molecules, water content, concentration of ammonia and Pt nanoparticles in solution were found to significantly influence the core–shell structure. By optimizing these parameters, it was possible to prepare core–shell particles each containing a single Pt nanoparticle with a silica layer coating approximately 10 nm thick.
