Application

Silver acetate can be used as a source of silver ions in synthesizing nano-silver wires for printed electronic applications, organoamine-ligated silver nanoparticles with low polydispersity and silver-doped calcium phosphate nanoparticles with potent antibacterial properties.
Used in a novel preparation of highly reflective, conductive silvered polymer films. Also effectively catalyzes cycloaddition reactions of isocyanoacetates with a variety of olefins.
