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.

Spherical silver-doped calcium phosphate nanoparticles were synthesized in a co-precipitation route from calcium nitrate/silver nitrate and ammonium phosphate in a continuous process and colloidally stabilized by carboxymethyl cellulose. Nanoparticles with 0.39 wt% silver content and a diameter of about 50-60
