Nanoplatinum Particles

Product Overview

Nanoplatinum particles are metallic materials with sizes ranging from 1-100 nm, typically referred to as nanocrystals. These platinum nanoparticles have a face-centered cubic (fcc) structure, usually in a single-crystal form. They are synthesized through chemical reduction methods, ensuring uniform particle size and excellent dispersibility. These properties make them suitable for a wide range of applications, including catalysis, sensors, and fuel cells. The particles can also be provided with amino and carboxyl functional groups at the termini, expanding their application scope.

Features

• High Dispersibility: Synthesized via chemical reduction, ensuring the nanoparticles exhibit excellent dispersibility, which enhances their catalytic activity and efficiency.
• Small Size: The ultra-small size of the platinum nanoparticles provides a large specific surface area and more active sites, significantly improving catalytic performance.
• Uniform Particle Size: The particle size and dispersion are carefully controlled using stabilizers such as polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), ensuring stability and reliability across various applications.

Applications

• Catalysis: Widely used in catalytic processes such as oxygen reduction reactions in fuel cells, automotive exhaust treatment, and syngas reforming.
• Sensors: Used in electrochemical sensors to detect a variety of harmful substances, such as acetaminophen, cetirizine, and phenylephrine.
• Fuel Cells: As a core material in fuel cells, platinum nanoparticles effectively enhance energy density and efficiency while reducing operating costs.
• Optical and Electronics: Due to their excellent conductivity and optical properties, platinum nanoparticles are utilized in optical devices and electronic components.
• Pharmaceuticals and Biomedicine: Platinum nanoparticles show great potential in cancer treatment and antibacterial applications, with uses in cancer therapies and radiation treatments.
