A self-switchable Ag nanoreactor exhibiting outstanding catalytic properties.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A highly efficient nanoreactor that contains silver nanoparticles in hollow silica spheres and an interpolymer network as a gate-keeper has been developed following a facile procedure. The fast "signal-triggered" switch of the smart network results in a high reactivity and a high response rate, yielding improved potential for many practical applications.

Toward intelligent nanosize bioreactors: a pH-switchable, channel-equipped, functional polymer nanocontainer.
To develop an intelligent sensor-effector functionality on the nanoscale, a pH-switchable, controlled nanoreactor based on amphiphilic copolymer membranes was built. The nanovesicles were equipped with bacterial transmembrane ompF pore proteins and the pH-sensitive enzyme acid phosphatase, resulting in a switchable substrate processing at pH 4-6.5. Ideal pH and substrate concentrations for the ...
متن کاملA Self-Switchable Polymer Reactor for Controlled Catalytic Chemistry Processes with a Hyperbranched Structure
A self-switchable polymer reactor with a hyperbranched structure for controlled catalytic chemistry processes is reported. This polymer reactor was made of silver nanoparticles and a polymer carrier consisting of hyperbranched polyethylenimine and hydroxyethyl acrylate that behaved as thermally switchable domains. Below the transfer temperature, relatively strong catalytic reactivity was demons...
متن کاملAg nanoprisms with Ag2S attachment
Triangular Ag nanoprisms are a type of most-studied noble-metal nanostructures over the past decade owing to their special structural architecture and outstanding optical and catalytic properties for a wide range of applications. Nevertheless, in contrast to active research for the synthesis of phase-pure Ag nanoprisms, no asymmetric heterodimers containing Ag prisms have been developed so far,...
متن کاملMechanochemical synthesis of crystalline and amorphous digold(I) helicates exhibiting anion- and phase-switchable luminescence properties.
For the first time, mechanochemical synthesis has been used for the preparation of crystalline and amorphous dinuclear gold(i) helicates, [Au2L2](X)2 (L = xantphos; X = CF3SO3, SCN, BF4 and PF6), that show anion- and phase-switchable luminescence properties. This solid-state approach provides strategies for developing switchable luminescent materials.
متن کاملCoupling two enzymes into a tandem nanoreactor utilizing a hierarchically structured MOF.
A hierarchical porous metal-organic framework (MOF), PCN-888, containing three types of cavities was utilized to couple two enzymes into a tandem nanoreactor. The largest cavity (6.2 nm) can only accommodate one molecule of glucose oxidase (GOx). The intermediate cavity (5.0 nm) can accommodate one and only one molecule of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The small cavity (2.0 nm) has sufficient s...
