Bimetallic nanoparticles: Preparation, properties, and biomedical applications

Abstract

Many studies of non-supported bimetallic nanoparticle (BMNP) dispersions, stabilized by ligands or polymers, and copolymers, were started only about 10 years ago. Several preparative procedures have been proposed, and full characterizations on BMNPs have been approved. Studies on BMNPs received huge attention from both scientific and technological communities because most of the NPs’ catalytic activity depends on their structural aspects.

In this study, we focus on the preparation, properties, and bio-application of BMNPs and introduction of the recent advance in these NPs.
