In the past decade, silver nanoparticles (AgNP) have gained attention due totheir highly effective bactericidal properties, and have been incorporated into manyconsumer products. The addition of AgNPs to cellulosic materials is not novel, but theapplication of a bactericidal paper as a cheap water purifier is. Our main objective inthis thesis is to prepare and evaluate a bactericidal paper embedded with AgNPs. Thetwo most successful methods to form AgNPs in paper were in situ reductions of silverions directly on the paper fibers, and differed by the means of reduction. The first useda commonly employed reducing agent for nanoparticle synthesis - sodium borohydride.The second was a "green" method involving the use of microwave radiation and ...
