Abstract

Two types of transparent gold-containing organo-inorganic hybrid gels (polymer nanocomposites) in which gold nanoparticles (nano-Au) are efficient species were synthesized. The stage of hybrid gel formation is preceded by the in situ chemical reduction of chloroauric acid in an aqueous solution of the synthetic linear polymer (polyvinyl alcohol or poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone)) affording a nano-Au. The presence of ultradispersed gold particles in the obtained nanocomposites was confirmed by UV-Vis spectroscopy and electron microscopy. The loss of solubility of the films in water confirms the formation of a gel network. The size of the gold particles and characteristics of the hybrid gel change depending on the molecular weight of the polymer. The interaction of the macromolecules and growing particles mainly determines the diameter and number of particles of the inorganic phase, whereas the content of chloroauric acid affects these parameters to a less extent.
