Silver Nano Particles Ag-NPs
Silver Nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are metallic silver particles with a size range between 1 nm – 100 nm. The silver particle size is expressed in nanometers which represents a billionth of a meter. For example, the thickness of a human hair is approximately 80,000 nm.
Due to their unique physical and chemical properties, such as antimicrobial properties, thermal and electrical conductivity, chemical stability and optical behavior. Silver Nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are increasingly used in numerous technologies and incorporated into a wide array of applications including medical, food, healthcare, cleaning and industrial products.
Silver Nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are applied through different forms; mainly, they come in either solid powder or silver solution format, which is a solution-based medium containing nanoparticles.
