abstract = "Silver fine powder with different shapes and sizes were prepared by chemical
reduction and characterized by scanning electron microscope. In this paper was
presented the method for the preparation of the fine Ag powder with particles size
smaller than 2.5 μm with suitability for the mass-production scale. Reduction was
performed from nitrate solution directly by vigorous stirring at room temperature by
three different reduction agents, with and without presence of two dispersants. Scanning
electron microscopy revealed the preferred size of the particles obtained in all
experiments with aim of the protecting agent. Larger particles and wider size
distribution were obtained without surfactants although with average size of about 1 μm
and small quantity of larger clusters of primary particles that is out of the fine powder
classification. High purity, 99.999%, of silver was obtained in every experiment.",
