Abstract

The growth of silver iodide nanoparticles on silk fiber was achieved by sequential dipping in an alternating bath of potassium iodide and silver nitrate under ultrasound irradiation. Some parameters such as effect of pH, concentration and numerous sequential dipping in growth of the nanocrystal have been studied. The samples were characterized with powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), ICP, TGA and solid state UV-vis spectroscopy.
