Abstract
The process of complex formation between polyethylenimine and copper cations in an aqueous solution, followed by isolation of copper nanoparticles, has been studied by means of ESR spectroscopy. It has been shown that in excess of the polymer in the solution the copper cation forms complex containing three nitrogen atoms in the coordination sphere, with distorted tetragonal geometry. The increase in copper concentration has led to the formation of the copper cation complex with water. Addition of the reducing agent NaBH4 to the studied solutions has led to the formation of copper nanoparticles accompanied by gradual disappearance of the ESR signal of Cu(II) and the appearance of the ESR signal typical of the mononuclear copper complexes with polyethylenimine.
期刊介绍:
Polymer Science, Series A is a journal published in collaboration with the Russian Academy of Sciences. Series A includes experimental and theoretical papers and reviews devoted to physicochemical studies of the structure and properties of polymers (6 issues a year). All journal series present original papers and reviews covering all fundamental aspects of macromolecular science. Contributions should be of marked novelty and interest for a broad readership. Articles may be written in English or Russian regardless of country and nationality of authors. All manuscripts are peer reviewed. Online submission via Internet to the Series A, B, and C is available at http://polymsci.ru.
