Many microelectronic devices require thin films of silver or gold as wiring layers. We report silver(i) and gold(i) bicyclic amidinate complexes, wherein the constrained ligand geometry lessens the propensity for thermal decomposition. These new volatile compounds provide metallic films of silver and gold during CVD with hydrogen below 230 °C.

In the present investigation, the formulation and thorough assessment of biodegradable composite films were conducted, utilizing pectin extracted from banana peel in conjunction with synthesized silver zeolite nanoparticles. The evaluation of physical properties, microstructural investigation, mechanical characteristics, and barrier properties was done providing valuable insights into various attributes of the film. The amalgamation of silver zeolite nanoparticles with the extracted pectin from banana peel results in biodegradable composite films exhibiting distinct physical, mechanical, barrier, and thermal properties.

Antimicrobial polymeric coatings rely not only on their surface functionalities but also on nanoparticles (NPs). Antimicrobial coatings gain their properties from the addition of NPs into a polymeric matrix. NPs that have been used include metal-based NPs, metal oxide NPs, carbon-based nanomaterials, and organic NPs.

There is an emerging quest for fabrication of water-soluble fluorescent silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) with long-lasting fluorescent properties and dimensional stability while being sustainable and functional. Thus, a well-known seed-mediated growth strategy has been developed to manufacture AgNCs supported onto carboxyl and aldehyde modified cellulose nanofiber (DATCNF) with ultra-small and intense fluorescence. The DATCNF acts as a reductant, template, and stabilizer while the protective ligand, 2-Mercaptonicotinic Acid (2-HMA), provides AgNCs with luminous characteristic and constrained size of 4.

It is well known that impaired wound healing associated with diabetes mellitus has led to a challenging problem as well as a global economic healthcare burden. Conventional wound care therapies like films, gauze, and bandages fail to cure diabetic wounds, thereby demanding a synergistic and promising wound care therapy. This investigation aimed to develop a novel, greener synthesis of a laser-responsive silver nanocolloid (LR-SNC) prepared using hyaluronic acid as a bioreductant.

This study aimed to prepare a composite film by blending cross-linked tapioca starch (CLTS) with sodium alginate (SA), silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), and ZnO nanoparticles (ZnOs). The effects of SA, AgNPs, and ZnOs at different concentrations (1-3 wt%) on the mechanical properties, optical properties, thermal stability, and antibacterial activity of cross-linked starch films were also investigated. The structures of the films were examined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction.
