Thermal conductivity studies of novel nanofluids based on metallic silver decorated mesoporous silica nanoparticles

- Metallic silver was decorated in mSiO2 with grafted hemiaminal functional groups.
- Synthesized nanoparticles were used for preparation of glycerol based nanofluids.
- The effect of temperature, weight fraction of mSiO2 and concentration of silver nanoparticles on thermal conductivity of nanofluids was investigated.
