Aliquat 336 stabilized multi-faceted gold nanoparticles with minimal ligand density
Using Methyltrioctylammonium chloride (Aliquat 336) as a shaping and stabilizing agent for the first time, quasi-spherical and multi-faceted gold (Au) nanoparticles (NPs) are synthesized via seed mediated protocol. These slightly elongated NPs devoid of any centre of symmetry are found to possess so...
