Preparation of PtNi nanoparticles for the electrocatalytic oxidation of methanolElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: TEM images of Pt nanoparticle seeds prepared from the methanol reduction of Pt salts. See http://www.rsc.org/suppdata/jm/b3/b307040a/ (2003, background): “sonication [5], [6], γ-ray radiolysis [7], UV irradiation [8], [9], thermal decomposition [10], [11], vapor deposition [12] and electrochemical synthesis [13]; just to name a few.”
Luminescent nanoparticles of Mn doped ZnS passivated with sodium hexametaphosphate (2005, background): “The number of seeds remains constant and over time; as more product molecules are formed the seeds grow in size in a thermodynamically controlled manner to form nano-crystallites [9].”
Synthesis, Characterization, and Applications of Copper Nanoparticles (2017, background): “The preference of copper nanoparticles compared to silver is due to the lower cost of copper than silver, the physical and chemical stability, and ease of mixing with polymers (Mallik et al. 2001).”
