  • High-throughput synthesis of metallic nanoparticles
    Patent number: 11878914
    Abstract: This invention relates to cost-effective methods for synthesizing metallic nanoparticles in high yield using non-dendrimeric branched polymeric templates, such as branched polyethyleneimine. This invention also provides a high-throughput apparatus for synthesizing metallic nanoparticles under conditions that produce less waste than conventional nanoparticle synthesis methods. Also provided are metallic nanoparticles and multi-metallic nanoparticle compositions made by methods and high-throughput apparatus of the invention.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 12, 2021
    Date of Patent: January 23, 2024
    Assignee: TUSKEGEE UNIVERSITY
    Inventors: Michael L. Curry, Aiesha L. Ethridge, Demetrius Finley
