Synthesis and Physicochemical Properties of Rhenium Nanoparticles

详细

This work describes the physicochemical properties of stable rhenium nanoparticles (Re NPs) which were synthesized by the chemical and radiation–chemical methods in a reverse-micelle solution (RMS) of nanoparticles. The methods of UV-VIS spectrophotometry, fluorometry, atomic-force and transmission electron microscopies, and small-angle X-ray scattering were used. It was found that the sizes of Re NPs varied within the range from 1 to 18 nm depending on the synthesis conditions and procedures.
