Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce dispersed fine silver particles having a narrow particle size distribution when a reducing agent is added to an aq. AgNO3 soln. and reacted to produce fine silver particles, by using D-erythorbic acid or a salt thereof as the reducing agent. CONSTITUTION:An aq. AgNO3 soln. is adjusted to 0.3-7pH by adding dil. nitric acid. An aq. soln. of D-erythorbic acid or a salt thereof such as the Na, K or ammonium salt as a reducing agent for Ag ions is adjusted to >0.1pH, added to the aq. AgNO3 soln. of 0.3-7pH and reacted to 0-100 deg.C. By this reaction, singly dispersed fine silver particles having a narrow particle size distribution are deposited. The particle size can be controlled.

The reason why D-erythorbic acid and D-erythorbic acid salts are used in the production method of the present invention is that their redox potential is suitable for reducing the silver nitrate aqueous solution, and at the same time, the aggregation of particles is prevented.

Furthermore, in the present invention, the pH of the silver nitrate aqueous solution is 0.3.
If it is lower than 7, the reaction will be slow, and if it is higher than 7, silver oxide will be produced, so the range of 0.3 to 7 is more preferable.
If the pH of D-erythorbic acid is lower than 0.1, the reaction will be extremely slow, so a pH of 0.1 or higher is more preferable.
If the temperature exceeds 0.degree. C., the silver particles will aggregate and the particle size distribution will become wider, so a temperature range of 0 to 100.degree. C. is more preferable.
