Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of silver particle preparation, and particularly relates to a method for preparing nano silver particles with uniform particle size by using a halogen-free deep eutectic solvent as an aid of oleylamine. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, metal nanoparticles, especially gold and silver, have attracted great research interest due to their potential applications in nanoelectronics, nanooptics, catalysis, biology, etc. At present, the method of preparing nanosilver based on deep eutectic solvents uses choline chloride as the hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA), and the presence of halogen ions will have a certain effect on the particle size and morphology of silver powder.

[0003] The chemical reduction method based on low eutectic solvents can realize the preparation of nano-scale and submicron-scale particles. The patent with publication number CN118106504A discloses a method and application of low eutectic solvent-assisted preparation of metal nanocatalysts. This method uses low eutectic solvent oil bath heating to prepare nano cobalt-based catalysts; the patent with publication number CN116463685A discloses a method of synthesizing silver particles using low eutectic solvent-based electrolyte. Although this method uses low eutectic solvent as electrolyte and electrochemical method to synthesize silver particles, this technical route has the disadvantage of high cost and is not suitable for large-scale industrial production; the patent with publication number CN116768196A discloses a method of preparing carbon nanotubes using low eutectic solvents. Although it uses microwave heating in low eutectic solvents, Carbon nanotubes were prepared, but the low eutectic solvent used contained chloride / bromide ions, which was not conducive to the preparation of nano silver; the patent with publication number CN118547026A disclosed a method for enzymatically catalyzing the synthesis of glucose laurate in a low eutectic solvent. Although cyclohexanone-lauric acid was used as the low eutectic solvent and glucose laurate was synthesized by the enzymatic method of glucose ester, it adopted a common heating method, which was not conducive to uniform heating during the preparation process and was not conducive to controlling the morphology of the product; the patent with publication number CN110182860B disclosed a method for preparing nano nickel-sulfur compounds by a one-step synthesis method using a low eutectic solvent. The low eutectic solvent used contained halogen ions, which would have a certain effect on the particle size and morphology of the silver powder.

[0004] Therefore, how to propose a method for preparing nanosilver particles with uniform particle size is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing silver nanoparticles with uniform particle size by using oleylamine assisted by a halogen-free deep eutectic solvent.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A method for preparing nano silver particles with uniform particle size using oleylamine assisted by a halogen-free deep eutectic solvent comprises the following steps:

[0008] (1) A halogen-free hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) and a hydrogen bond donor (HBD) are mixed in a certain proportion and heated and stirred for a certain period of time to synthesize a halogen-free deep eutectic solvent with a certain viscosity and fluidity;

[0009] (2) adding a certain amount of silver salt into a beaker, adding a certain amount of a deep eutectic solvent, and finally adding a certain amount of oleylamine into the beaker at room temperature and stirring for a certain period of time;

[0010] (3) placing the mixture in a reaction vessel, heating it at a certain temperature for a certain time, and after the reaction is completed, washing it three times by centrifugation with acetone, and finally dispersing it in ethanol to obtain nanosilver particles.

[0011] It should be noted that, since the reducing agents that are easily soluble in the deep eutectic solvent include alcohols and amines, the present invention considers using oleylamine as a reducing agent to prepare nanosilver. The nanosilver particles prepared by the present invention use a halogen-free deep eutectic solvent, oleylamine as a reducing agent and a dispersant, and prepare spherical nanosilver particles with a particle size of 5-15nm.

[0012] Preferably, in step (1), the hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) is choline bitartrate or choline nitrate, and the hydrogen bond donor (HBD) is N,N-dimethylurea, maleic acid, D + At least one of glucose, acrylamide, oxalic acid and ethylene glycol, wherein the molar ratio of the halogen-free hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) to the hydrogen bond donor (HBD) is 1:1-1:3.

[0013] Preferably, in step (1), the heating temperature is 100-130° C., and the stirring time is 1-3 h.

[0014] Preferably, in step (2), the silver salt is one of silver nitrate, silver carbonate and silver trifluoromethanesulfonate.

[0015] Preferably, the amount of the low eutectic solvent added is 200-2000 times the mass of the silver salt added, and the amount of oleylamine added is 20-30 times the mass of the silver salt added.

[0016] Specifically, in step (2), the amount of the silver salt added is 0.5-1.5 mmol, the amount of the low eutectic solvent added is 10-100 g, and the amount of oleylamine added is 5-30 mmol.

[0017] Preferably, in step (2), the stirring time is 1-5 min.

[0018] Preferably, in step (3), the heating reaction temperature is 100-180° C., and the heating reaction time is 1-3 h.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] (1) The method of the present invention abandons the traditional solvent of the liquid phase chemical reduction method and adopts a low eutectic solvent as the solvent. The provided low eutectic solvent does not contain halogen ions, thereby eliminating the interference of halogen ions on the morphology of nanosilver. The prepared silver particles can adjust the particle size distribution of nanosilver according to the type of the low eutectic solvent and the amount of key active substances used.

[0021] (2) The low eutectic solvent is a low eutectic mixture composed of a certain stoichiometric ratio of hydrogen bond acceptors (HBA) and hydrogen bond donors (HBD). It has the characteristics of low cost, non-toxicity, low eutectic point, and high thermal stability. It is an ideal new reaction medium and has a certain viscosity. It has an inhibitory effect on the growth and agglomeration of nanosilver, making the prepared nanosilver particle size distribution narrower, with good dispersion and regular spherical shape. It can be stored at room temperature and can be widely used in biochemical and medical antibacterial materials.

[0022] (3) The method of the present invention conducts exploratory experiments on different types of low eutectic solvents. The low eutectic solvent can be structurally modified and designed according to the application requirements of the silver powder. It is determined that the silver salt and dispersant used can be evenly dispersed in the low eutectic solvent during the preparation process and have good solubility.

[0023] (4) The method of the present invention replaces the electrolysis method with heating in a reactor and adopts oleylamine which is easily soluble in a low eutectic solvent as a reducing agent and a dispersant, thereby reducing the production cost, achieving uniform heating of the solute, and making the nanosilver homogeneous generated and grown, and the entire reaction is more controllable.
