| Zusammenfassung: | In this study, a heterogeneous nucleation and growth model has been developed to explore the formation mechanism of silver-deposited silica core-shell particles based on the reaction kinetics. To validate the core-shell model, the time-dependent experimental data were quantitatively examined and in situ reduction, nucleation, and growth rates were estimated by optimizing the concentration profiles of reactants and deposited silver particles. Using this model, we also attempted to predict the change in the surface area and diameter of core-shell particles. The concentration of the reducing agent, metal precursor, and reaction temperature were found to have a strong influence on the rate constants and morphology of core-shell particles. Higher rates of nucleation and growth often produced thick, asymmetric patches that covered the entire surface, whereas lower rates produced sparsely deposited silver particles with a spherical shape. The result revealed that by simply tuning the process parameters and controlling the relative rates, the morphology of deposited silver particles and the surface coverage can be controlled while retaining the spherical shape of the core. The present study aims to offer comprehensive data pertaining to the nucleation, growth, and coalescence processes of core-shell nanostructures which will aid in the development and understanding of the principles that govern the formation of nanoparticle-coated materials |
