The scientific article titled “Preparation of anisotropic AgNWs/PVA/Ag2S nanocomposites via a vapor-phase sulfidation process”, authored by Mustafa Muradov, Goncha Eyvazova, Sevinch Mammadyarova, researchers at the Center for Excellence in Research, Development and Innovation of the Baku State University (BSU), and Mahammad Baghir Baghirov, a PhD student in the Department of Chemical Physics of Nanomaterials has been published in the journal “RSC Advances” (IF:3.9).

This study used a modified polyol technique to synthesize silver nanowires (AgNWs), which were subsequently mixed with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) polymer and air-dried under ambient conditions. As a result, AgNWs/PVA nanocomposites with a concentration of 2% were prepared by a casting process.
