Ag@SiO2 core-shell nanoparticles have emerged as versatile materials for a wide range of applications. These nanoparticles consist of a metallic silver core enveloped by a silica shell, offering unique properties that stem from the synergistic interaction between these two components. The synthesis of Ag@SiO2 nanoparticles typically involves a mul

Polymer nanocomposites are a compelling field of research in materials science. These innovative formulations consist of a polymer base reinforced with nanoparticles typically ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers in extent. The incorporation of these nanoparticles remarkably enhances the mechanical, thermal, and optical properties of the resulting poly
