Green Synthesis and Analytical Characterization of Core‐Shell Copper Sub‐Microparticles

Abstract: This study demonstrates a simple and reproducible approach to synthesize green core‐shell copper sub‐microparticles stabilized by poly (n‐vinyl) pyrrolidone (PVP). Cu@PVP colloids were here prepared using copper sulfate pentahydrate as precursor and glucose as reducing agent. The presence of PVP in the synthetic medium eliminates the need for an inert atmosphere during the process, thus simplifying the whole method. Both the morphology and the spectroscopic properties of Cu@PVP colloids were investigated by transmission electron microscopy, and infrared, UV‐Vis and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopies. Size distributions and average shell thickness were obtained by statistical analysis on TEM micrographs, and spectroscopies demonstrated the formation of a PVP layer around the copper core. The produced colloids were employed in composite thin films for potential antimicrobial application, in association with a highly‐recyclable polymer: polycarbonate (4,4’‐(1‐methylethylidene) bis (phenol)).
