Thermal hydrogen reduction for synthesis of gold nanoparticles in the nanochannels of mesoporous silica composite
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with small particle size have been difficult to be synthesized due to their strong agglomeration. Herein we report that the nanochannels of mesoporous silica synthesized from template sol-gel synthesis were utilized to prepare AuNPs by employing thermal hydrogen reduction....
