SUMMARY

Spherical silver nanoparticles (NPs) were obtained by silver ions reduction with hydrazine in the presence of sodium citrate as a stabilizer. It has been investigated the kinetic regularities of the silver NPs nucleuses formation and their propagation depending on the starting concentration of the hydroxide ions and silver ions. It was investigated the influence of the synthesis conditions on the average diameter of the obtained silver NPs. It was shown the dependence of the obtained silver NPs on kinetic parameters of the process.
