Extracellular biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles with various shapes using the rice bacterial blight bacterium Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae BXO8 is reported. The synthesized silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). Based on the evidence of HR-TEM, the synthesized particles were found to be spherical, with anisotropic structures such as triangles and rods, with an average size of 14.86 nm. The crystalline nature of silver nanoparticles was evident from the bright circular spots in the SAED pattern, clear lattice fringes in the high-resolution TEM images, and peaks in the XRD pattern. The FTIR spectrum showed that biomolecules containing amide and carboxylate groups are involved in the reduction and stabilization of the silver nanoparticles. Using such a biological method for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles is a simple, viable, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly process, which can be used in antimicrobial therapy.

Silver nanoparticles have marked antimicrobial effects on several pathogens and have been used to control bacterial growth in humans. In the present study, we evaluated the antimicrobial efficacy of silver nanoparticles against the common causative pathogens of canine otitis external through counting of colony forming units. Silver nanoparticles showed significant dose-dependent antimicrobial effects on pathogens. In addition, we conducted antimicrobial susceptibility tests and compared the antimicrobial efficacy of silver nanoparticles. Microorganisms with a high resistance to antibiotics were also resistant silver nanoparticle with low concentration ($5{\mu}g/mL$). However, in high concentration ($15{\mu}g/mL$), almost 100% reduction in the number of CFUs of these pathogens was observed.

방사성 유기 혼합폐기물의 저온 분해공정인 MEO(Mediated Electrochemical Oxidation) 공정에서 발생하는 폐액으로부터 Ag를 화학적으로 회수하는 연구를 수행하였다. 고농도 질산용액과 함에 존재하는 $AgNO_3$를 HCl과 반응시켜 AgCl 침전물로 회수하였다. 이 때 HCl 최적 반응 당량비는 $AgNO_3$비해 1% 초과하였으며 100% 침전시킬 수 있었다. AgCl은 알카리 분위기에서 과산화수소와 반응시켜 순수 Ag금속으로 환원됨을 알 수 있었고, Ag금속의 환원 반응시 용액의 pH는 12.8~13.0의 범위가 적당하였다.

In order to increase the sensitivity of the photographic emulsion, one of the chemical sensitizers hydroxymethane sulfonic acid sodium salt(HMS) was applied through the chemical ripening process and following four types of emulsion were prepared. Their grain sizes were determined through the electron microscope. The ranges of average grain sizes were $0.05-0.40{\mu}m$ for silver chlorobromide emulsion of low sensitivity $0.10-0.45{\mu}m$ for the silver chlorobromide emulsion of medium sensitivity, $0.60-1.05{\mu}m$ for the silver iodobromide emulsion of high sensitivity, and $0.90-1.55{\mu}m$ for the ammonical silver iodobromide emulsion of high sensitivity. Through the reduction sensitization with HMS, they showed significant sensitivity enhancement by the increment of HMS concentration above pH 5.5 and pBr 3.0. Required sensitivity was obtained above pH 6.2 and pBr 3.3 when sulfur and gold sensitization were applied. Fog formed along the reduction sensitization was successfully prevented by the addition of 5.5-dimethylhydantion.

함은 폐재의 리싸이클링을 위한 연구의 일환으로써 Hydrazine Hydrate을 환원제로 사용하여 질산은 수용액으로부터 Ag 나노분말을 제조하기 위한 실험을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 질산은을 소정 농도로 증류수에 용해시킨 수용액에 Ag 미립자의 응집방지를 위한 분산제로써 Tamol NN8906 혹은 Tween 20을 미리 혼합한 다음 환원제인 Hydrazine Hydrate 용액을 첨가하는 방법으로 환원반응을 실시하였다. 환원반응을 통하여 제조한 Ag 미립자는 입도분석기 및 TEM 측정을 통하여 형상과 평균입도를 측정하였다. Hydrazine Hydrate에 의한 은의 환원을 위해서는 이론치의 약 2배를 첨가해 주어야 하는 것으로 나타났으며, Tamol NN8906을 분산제로 사용하여 제조한 Ag 나노분발은 매우 좁은 입도범위의 분포특성을 보여 주었다. Tween 20을 분산제로 사용한 경우의 입도 분포는 bimodal 혹은 multimodal distribution을 보였으며, 입자 모양에 있어서는 Tamol NN8906과 Tween 20이 모두 비슷하게 표면이 매끄러운 불규칙한 모양의 입자들로 구성되어 있었다.

Silver paste with low sintered temperature has been developed in order to apply electronic parts, such as bus electrode, address electrode in PDP (Plasma Display Panel) with large screen area. In this study, nano-sized silver particles with 10-30 nm were synthesized from silver nitrate ($AgNO_3$) solution by chemical reduction method and silver paste with low sintered temperature was prepared by mixing silver nanoparticles, conventional silver powder with the particle size 1.6 um and Pb-free frit. Conductive thick film from silver paste was fabricated by screen printing on alumina substrate. After firing at $540^{\circ}C$, the cross section and surface morphology of the thick films were analyzed by FE-SEM. Also, the sheet resistivity of the fired thick films was measured using the four-point technique.

The reduction behavior of silver ions to silver nanoparticles is an important research topic in polymer/silver salt complex membranes for facilitated olefin transport, because it has a significant effect on the long-term stability of membrane performance. In this study, the effects of solvent on the formation of silver nanoparticles and long-term membrane performance in polymer/silver salt complex membrane were investigated. This effect was assessed for the complexes of poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) $(PVP)/AgBF_{4}$ with the use of ionic liquid (IL), acetonitrile (ACN) and water as a solvent. Membrane performance test shows that long-term stability is strongly dependent on the kind of solvent and arranged: IL > ACN >> water.

Particles of high strength material when coated with silver offer a means of obtaining desirable electrical properties and high strength. The coating process employed aqueous ammoniacal silver-nitrate electrolytes with a formaldehyde solution as the reductant. Modifying additives were also applied. The reduction and subsequent deposition of silver occurred selectively on the surface of the tungsten particles. The morphologies of the coated particles were assessed by SEM imaging. The silver was uniformed coated on tungsten powder and its thickness was estimated to be approximately 100nm on the basis of a mass account.

This study was attended to demonstrate synthesis of silver nanoparticles stabilized with polymer and their applicability to printed electronics. Silver nanoparticles were synthesized by reduction of silver nitrate in aqueous solution in the presence of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as a stabilizer. The ink used here is composed of 50 wt% Ag NP, 15 wt% humectant and then were printed on polyimide film. Particle deposit morphologies were controlled by varying the ink compositions. Printed silver patterns and dots were cured on a convection oven in air at $300^{\circ}C$ for 60 min. The printed patterns show good shape definition and the resistivity of the printed films is about $5{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$.

Silver has the highest electrical conductivity of all metals and consequently this property is an attractive feature which makes it a leading candidate for use in electronic devices. The research conducted was focused primarily on the development of a process for obtaining a deposited silver-coating onto alumina, for applications related to electrical-conducting devices and, ancillarily, catalysts. Alumina balls and plane substrates were utilized for the investigation. The coating process employed an aqueous ammoniacal silver-nitrate electrolytes with a formaldehyde solution as the reductant. Modifying additives-an activator which would be expected to promote good deposition-characteristics onto the (dielectric) substrate and an inhibitor which would obviate homogeneous reduction (precipitation) of silver was observed when the activator-containing silver-electrolyte reductant constituents were combined. However, the silver-electrolyte/reductant system with inhibitor could be employed (at 8$0^{\circ}C$) to achieve a viable (subject to future research optimization) coating on alumina. The influence of the processing temperature on the deposition process was delineated during the course of the research. The morphology of the deposited-silver on the alumina balls was assessed by SEM imaging. A tape-peel test was employed, with the plane substrates, to semi-quantitatively characterize the adhesion to the alumina.
