Title: Polyelectrolyte coating provides a facile route to suspend gold nanorods in polar organic solvents and hydrophobic polymers. Author: Alkilany AM, Thompson LB, Murphy CJ. Journal: ACS Appl Mater Interfaces; 2010 Dec; 2(12):3417-21. PubMed ID: 21067211. Abstract: The widely used and versatile polyelectrolyte layer-by-layer (LbL) nanoparticle coating strategy allows for gold nanorods to be transferred from aqueous media into a broad range of polar organic solvents without aggregation. The uniform dispersity and stability of the nanorods in organic solvents allows for uniform incorporation of nanorods into a variety of hydrophobic polymers.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
