Green synthesis and characterization of Au@Pt core–shell bimetallic nanoparticles using gallic acid
چکیده انگلیسی


• A green synthesis approach for fabricating Au@Pt core–shell nanoparticles (NPs).
• Gallic acid was used as both a reducing and protecting agent in green synthesis.
• The initially formed Au NPs served as seeds in the HAuCl4 and H2PtCl6 mixture.
• Adding PVP decreased the size and enhanced the monodispersity of Au@Pt NPs.
• Au@Pt core–shell NPs had high catalytic activity when NaBH4 reduced PNP to PAP.

In this study, we developed a facile and benign green synthesis approach for the successful fabrication of well-dispersed urchin-like Au@Pt core–shell nanoparticles (NPs) using gallic acid (GA) as both a reducing and protecting agent. The proposed one-step synthesis exploits the differences in the reduction potentials of AuCl4− and PtCl62−, where the AuCl4− ions are preferentially reduced to Au cores and the PtCl62− ions are then deposited continuously onto the Au core surface as a Pt shell. The as-prepared Au@Pt NPs were characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM); high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM); scanning electron microscope (SEM); UV-vis absorption spectra (UV-vis); X-ray diffraction (XRD); Fourier transmission infrared spectra (FT-IR). We systematically investigated the effects of some experimental parameters on the formation of the Au@Pt NPs, i.e., the reaction temperature, the molar ratios of HAuCl4/H2PtCl6, and the amount of GA. When polyvinylpyrrolidone K-30 (PVP) was used as a protecting agent, the Au@Pt core–shell NPs obtained using this green synthesis method were better dispersed and smaller in size. The as-prepared Au@Pt NPs exhibited better catalytic activity in the reaction where NaBH4 reduced p-nitrophenol to p-aminophenol. However, the results showed that the Au@Pt bimetallic NPs had a lower catalytic activity than the pure Au NPs obtained by the same method, which confirmed the formation of Au@Pt core–shell nanostructures because the active sites on the surfaces of the Au NPs were covered with a Pt shell.
