The effect of additions of hydrophobic dioctyl sulfide (L) on the kinetics of dissolution of gold nanoparticles in the interaction with a dispersed aqueous hydrochloric solution of HO in Triton N-42 reverse micelles (decane was the dispersion medium) was studied spectrophotometrically. The process consists of a two-stage oxidation Au → AuCl → AuCl at the surface of gold particles; the first stage occurs in two ways: a spontaneous reaction and an autocatalytic reaction involving AuCl ions. With small additions of L ( c < c), only spontaneous oxidation of Au(0) to Au(I) takes place because Au(I) is completely bound in an inert complex AuLCl. When unbound L is exhausted, the newly formed AuLCl is accumulated in micellar shells, changes the properties of the medium inside the micelles, and affects the rate constant of the autocatalytic reaction, which increases with increasing c. At high concentrations of L, the coagulation of particles occurs instead of their dissolution, because of the deterioration of the protective properties of micellar shells as a result of the ingression and accumulation of dioctyl sulfide molecules on account of selective adsorption on gold particles. The rate constants of all stages of dissolution and coagulation are determined. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
