Facile Synthesis of Copper Nanoparticles in Glycerol at Room Temperature: Formation Mechanism

A copper sol is usually synthesized by the reduction of a copper precursor with a suitable reducing agent in the presence of a stabilizer. There are few reports regarding the preparation of copper nanoparticles in glycerol without using a stabilizing agent, but at elevated temperatures. The formatio...
