This paper describes the size and shape evolution of silver nanostructures synthesized by a typical-polyol method that yields high nanowire content using a short-chain (MW=40,000) polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP). Scanning Electron Microscopy, Transmission Electron Microscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction, were used to characterize the nanostructures synthetized in this work. It was found that the morphology of silver nanostructures changes as a function of the stirring time of the silver precursor salt (silver nitrate, AgNO3) before the addition of the capping agent (PVP). Results showed that after 60 min of stirring, the reaction yields silver nanowires (similar to 99%). K.). (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Improving the Mechanical Resistance of Hydroxyapatite/Chitosan Composite Materials Made of Nanofibers with Crystalline Preferential Orientation

Ricardo Pascual Alanis-Gomez, Eric Mauricio Rivera-Munoz, Gabriel Luna-Barcenas, Jose Rafael Alanis-Gomez, Rodrigo Velazquez-Castillo

Summary: In this study, hexagonal HAp nanofibers with preferential crystalline orientation were produced and mixed with chitosan to create composite materials. The morphology of the nanofibers exposed active chemical groups and ions on the surface, which interacted with chitosan to enhance the mechanical resistance of the composites. Additionally, mixing the nanofibers and chitosan using a sonotrode improved their dispersion within the matrix and prevented migration. The mechanical resistance of the composite materials was higher than that of similar materials made with commercial HAp powders.
