Green synthesis and characterization of silver/chitosan/polyethylene glycol nanocomposites without any reducing agent.

This paper presents the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) in aqueous medium. This method was performed by reducing AgNO3 in different stirring times of reaction at a moderate temperature using green agents, chitosan (Cts) and polyethylene glycol (PEG). In this work, silver nitrate (Ag...
