Abstract:

The interaction conditions for H2O2 with Au nanorods(Au NRs) were investigated by changing the concentrations of H+ and Br- in the reaction solution. Au NRs with positively surface were modified by poly(sodium-styrenesulfonate)(PSS) via electrostatic interaction to detect the effect of different ligands on the interaction between H2O2 and Au NRs. Different PSS concentration led to the corresponding change in localized surface plasmon resonance(LSPR) absorption peak of Au NRs. The results demonstrated that the increase of H+ concentration led to the increase of etching reaction ratio of Au NRs. The role of Br- was depicted as stabilizing gold ions during the etching process of Au NRs. PSS molecules on Au NRs inhibited the etching process. In addition, the stability of PSS-modified Au NRs had great relation with the concentration of PSS molecules. When the amounts of PSS and hexadceyl trimethyl ammonium bromide(CTAB) were the same, the zeta potential was zero. Thus, Au NRs were unstable. With increasing the amount of PSS, the surface zeta potential became negatively and the stability of Au NRs increased.
