- Our method is inherently a simple, mild, green, and controllable method.
- The prepared Ag/PSNM products are a novel nanocomposite.
- The prepared Ag/PSNM products possess good temperature/pH responsive properties and improved thermal properties.
- The prepared Ag/PSNM products exhibit high catalytic activities and good storage stabilities.
A facile strategy has been developed for the preparation of novel silver/poly(styrene-N-isopropylacrylamide-methacrylic acid) (Ag/PSNM) nanocomposite spheres with high catalytic activity and good storage stability. Silver (Ag) nanoparticles are successfully deposited on poly(styrene-N-isopropylacrylamide-methacrylic acid) (PSNM) spheres surfaces via in situ reduction and simultaneously protected by polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). The prepared Ag/PSNM nanocomposite spheres show good temperature/pH responsive property and improved thermal property. Moreover, they also exhibit high catalytic activity and good recyclability for the catalytic reduction of methylene blue (MB) to leuco methylene blue (LMB). The result of clock reaction indicate that the redox reaction generates a colorless (LMB) solution which easily reverts back to blue (MB) in air. The catalytic activity increase with the increasing of temperature and the reaction rate constant (k) follows the typical Arrhenius-type dependence on temperature. In addition, the prepared Ag/PSNM nanocomposite spheres show good storage stability and the catalytic activity remains almost unchanged after storage for 90Â days at room temperature. Therefore, the prepared Ag/PSNM nanocomposite spheres can have a highly potential use in the catalytic degradation of organic dyes in wastewater treatment applications.
