On-site formation of small Ag nanoparticles on superhydrophobic mesoporous silica for antibacterial application

Abstract

A superhydrophobic mesoporous silica material loaded with on-site formed small Ag nanoparticles has been prepared via surface modification with octadecylsilane (C18H37SiH3) and subsequent reduction of silver acetate with residual hydrido groups on-site. The resultant material shows excellent antibacterial activity for Gram-negative E. coli and Gram-positive S. aureus.
