Description

The Au-doped melamine-formaldehyde (MF) aerogel was fabricated by γ-irradiation of AuCl3 solution with MF aerogel monoliths impregnated. The obtained samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDX) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The results show that the well distributed Au nanoparticles presented in MF aerogels and the average particle size was 5.8 nm after irradiation. The nitrogen adsorption characterization reveals the introduction of Au nanoparticles produced a reduction of the surface areas and total, micropore and mesopore volumes. (authors)
