Silver Nanoparticles for Hydrogen Peroxide Sensors

Abstract

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are currently increasingly synthesized for their superior physicochemical and electronic properties. Good knowledge of these characteristics allows the development of applications in all sensitive and essential fields in the service of humans and the environment. This review aims to summarize the Ag NPs synthesis methods, properties, and applications in hydrogen peroxide sensors. Generally, Ag NPs can be synthesized using physical, chemical, and biological routes. Studies of Ag NPs have increased after clear and substantial support from governments to develop nanotechnology. Ag NPs are the most widely due to their various potent properties. Thus, this review discusses some different synthesis procedures and hydrogen peroxide applications of Ag NPs.
