Title:
NANOWIRE PREPARATION METHODS, COMPOSITIONS, AND ARTICLES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/170291
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Nanomaterial preparation methods, compositions, and articles are disclosed and claimed. Such methods can provide nanomaterials with improved morphologies relative to previous methods. Such materials are useful in electronic applications. For example a silver nanowire is produced by the polyol process by using a solution comprising silver nitrate, ethylene glycol, PVP and especially a compound of an actinide metal such as thorium.
