Producing gold nano-particles (and hydrogen) in water without the need for toxic chemicals

Posted by in categories: chemistry, nanotechnology, particle physics

In a surprise discovery, Flinders University nanotechnology researchers have produced a range of different types of gold nanoparticles by adjusting water flow in the novel vortex fluidic device—without the need for toxic chemicals. The article, “Nanogold Foundry Involving High-Shear-Mediated Photocontact Electrification in Water,” has been published in Small Science.
