Electrochemical Properties of Silver Nanoparticle Doped Aminosilica Nanocomposite

(a) The cyclic voltammogram (CV) of silver nanoparticle doped enTMOS nanocomposite film. The measurement was performed in a phosphate buffer saline solution containing 137 mM chloride ions with a scan rate of 50 mV s−1. (b) The cyclic voltammogram of the same nanocomposite film in a phosphate buffer without chloride ions (50 mV s−1). The peaks appear broader, due to that silver oxide and silver phosphate are both involved in the redox reactions.
