Abstract
The instant disclosure is directed to passivated silver nanoparticle coatings and methods of making the same. A method may comprise obtaining a substrate having a surface, exposing the surface to a plurality of silver nanoparticles, applying a nucleating agent to the silver nanoparticles to form a plurality of silver cores, and passivating the silver cores by applying a sulfidation agent to the silver cores to form silver sulfide shells around the silver cores, thereby forming a coating comprising a plurality of sulfidated silver nanoparticles having a core-shell structure. The method may be used to form a coating comprising a plurality of sulfidated silver nanoparticles having a core-shell structure.
