三氟乙酸银

Silver trifluoroacetate is the silver salt of trifluoroacetic acid and appears as a light-yellow crystalline powder. Its excellent solubility in water, acetone, and ethanol makes it easy to handle in solution-based processes. It is often used as a silver source for creating thin films on electronic substrates via techniques like spin-coating, dip-coating, or spray-coating, forming conductive silver layers.

Silver trifluoroacetate is used

• As a precursor to synthesize ultrasmall icosahedral silver nanoparticles with precise size control and high monodispersed, ideal for advanced applications in plasmonic sensing, nanoelectronics, and biomedical diagnostics.
• As a co-precursor to promote the formation of silver nanocluster nodes, enabling the controlled self-assembly of coordination polymers designed for advanced applications in optoelectronics and molecular sensing.
• As a silver source to coat gold ultrathin nanorods with a single atomic silver layer, fine-tuning their optical properties for use in plasmonic sensing and nanophotonic.
• As a bifunctional reagent and it serves as both a convenient in situ CO source and an oxidant in the reaction.

High silver loading (48.7%) increases the availability of active sites for catalysis, leading to more efficient conversion of reactants into products as more Silver atoms are involved in the reaction.
