Process Development and Application of Noble Metal Nanoparticle Related Materials by Total Eco-design

Abstract

Fabrication and application of nano-sized noble metal particles are introduced for newly, ecology and economy system. In this method, noble metal oxides and alcohol as starting materials are low emission (LE) materials, and we use ultrasonic irradiation as reaction energy. We have reduced noble metal oxides by ultrasound and fabricated noble nano metal nanoparticles at room temperature, and investigated various applications. By choosing suitable process and conditions, it is reasonable to be expected that these ultrasonic fabrications can be extended to obtain simply various noble metal nanoparticles related materials at total eco-design.
