The invention provides a preparation method of an ultra-pure and ultrafine silver
nanowire. The preparation method comprises the following steps: step 1, an
ethylene glycol solution with
sodium bromide, an
ethylene glycol solution with
sodium chloride, an
ethylene glycol solution with PVP and an
ethylene glycol solution with
silver nitrate are prepared, and in the preparation process,
moisture inethylene glycol is removed through heating; and step 2, the
ethylene glycol is taken, heating is conducted to remove the
moisture, the
ethylene glycol solution with
sodium bromide, the ethylene glycolsolution with sodium
chloride, the ethylene glycol solution with PVP and the ethylene glycol solution with
silver nitrate which are prepared in the step 1 are added, the temperature is increased to form a
nucleus, temperature increasing is reduced, and the ultra-pure and ultrafine silver
nanowire is prepared. According to the preparation method, the adsorbed
moisture in the ethylene glycol is removed through heating, thus the concentration of hydroxyl
plasma in a reaction solution is effectively decreased,
seed crystal damage caused by
ion etching is reduced, the dynamic process of
nucleus forming is adjusted and controlled, the probability that the
crystal nucleus grows into the
nanowire is increased significantly, and the ultra-pure and ultrafine silver nanowire can be obtained withoutthe need of the subsequent purification process.
