Ionic liquid-facilitated synthesis and catalytic activity of highly dispersed Ag nanoclusters supported on TiO<inf>2</inf>

This study describes a one-pot sol-gel method for the synthesis of Ag/TiO2 nanocomposite powders. TEM images showed that the Ag clusters formed with this method are highly dispersed on the surface of TiO2 nanoparticles. UV/visible spectroscopy results indicated that [BMIM][PF 6], an imidazolium-base...
